Asheville, North Carolina




August 16 - 17. Arrived in Asheville, NC Saturday in time to settle in so that Les could watch the Busch and Cup races. We have been reduced to scheduling our traveling around our sporting events! If it’s not racing it’s the Red Sox Baseball games. We stayed at a nice KOA in Candler, NC just outside of Asheville. Unfortunately the pool was a lovely green and the staff were beside themselves trying to figure out why. Apparently they lost the phone number for the professionals, but the owners were very nice. The park happened to be right next to the highway and we can vouch that it is a noisy and busy road or at least Les can as he was unable to go back to sleep. We are posting a couple of photos that give credence to why they named this part of the country Smokey Mountain Region - they weren’t kidding.

We are winding down our vacation and are sad that we have only a little more time. If nothing else this experience has us convinced that we can full-time RV later in life. There was no blood shed and I only pouted a few times!

We are headed for Charleston South Carolina for a few days visit with family then off to Savannah, Georgia and then back to Florida.
