Spent a few days in Asheville, North Carolina. Very relaxed town with a nice hippy vibe. Good restaurants, nice people and an interesting history including the 250 room,180,000 square foot Biltmore Estate and the Arts and Crafts style Grove Park Inn (where F. Scott Fitzgerald nearly drank himself to death)
