R&R

We have been in Asheville since yesterday on a family trip...Dan, Daniel Jr., and me. Our time here has been so relaxing. We got a priceline deal at the Crowne Plaza for $55 (which I was very excited about until we talked to a lady who is paying $40) and have enjoyed the Asheville area. We took a drive up the Blue Ridge Parkway, ate lunch at a German restaurant in Black Mountain, visited Tysons Furniture, took a nap, shopped at the Asheville Mall (found some great clearance items), ate dinner and dessert at Cracker Barrel, and completed our evening with a visit to Krispy Kreme...the sign was on! We were going to buy 6, however it was just a little more than a dollar more for a dozen. Yes, we got the dozen. I thought I had eaten 4, but then I remembered it was only 3. That made me feel much better, but still 3 donuts is 3 donuts. I love vacation. We will start the diet and visit to the gym on Monday!!! Tomorrow we are going to the Biltmore. At Christmastime we upgraded our passes to the year-long pass, and Rach, Matt and Benton will join us for the trip. We are starting out at Cracker Barrel. Join us if you would like!
