Nope, I definitely didn't see them. Instead, I saw this---bumper to bumper traffic lined up outside the Asheville Regional Airport. Still exciting...in it's own way.
Turns out the Obamas and I had the same plan for this weekend. Only when I visit places, I don't shut down whole roads (or get private tours of the Biltmore Estate). But no matter! I made it to the hippie, mountain town by 2pm and promptly fell in love. Walking down Haywood street, I saw a girl blowing bubbles and twirling hula-hoops on her arms (each in a different direction, mind you!), later a guy in a Subaru station wagon drove by blaring Yeasayer out his window. Could it get any cooler? The little town in the middle of the mountains has me sold!
to answer your question:
ReplyDeleteit probably couldn't get any cooler,
unless i was the driver of the station wagon.
