The best weekend. Went to Asheville to visit Mack and Tray, see their apartment for the first time. They moved in nine months ago! I was so tired. I am so tired of being tired. They thought out the entire weekend beautifully. So beautifully. Took such such good care of us. Tupelo Honey in downtown Asheville for the first night's dinner. Saw drumming circle (wanted to join in.) Saturday went to farm with pigs and chickens (they were so cute!) Dinner at the Biltmore (LOVED the fireplace, sat there nursing a drink.) Breakfast at a place with gluten free, freshness, care given to each item served. You know, that was all of Asheville. They love life, they appreciate the details. They have integrity in their attitude. Human scale. Humans are important. This moment is important. I loved it.
Most of all, loved seeing the home that Mack and Tray built. It was warm, comfortable. It was full of love. It was them. Oh how that warmed my heart.
Big news, they are moving to Blacksburg in May, as Mack got a great offer from Va Tech's Chemistry PhD program. YEAH! Glad I saw Asheville while they were still there... great first trip. I can do it, napping all day long. What happens when I don't nap if I am tired, the feet and left arm get swollen. Head aches, eyes itch. Throat / larynx inflames. I know.
Here's Mike waiting at the airport to come home.
