A She Ville
We’re in North Carolina.
Asheville to be exact.
Home of Tom Wolfe and his Memorial Angel.
Where there’s always good street art and entertainment.
And comedy tour buses drive by.
I tried on a dress in a boutique shop on Wall Street (not that Wall Street) but it was a too tight fit.
A stop at the French Broad Chocolate Lounge is always in order.
We always visit Malaprops Bookstore and love their speaker’s set up.
We couldn’t stay for the reading because we were set to meet my Asheville Potter son Josh at his Clayspace Studio in the River Arts District.
Josh’s girlfriend Emily is not shy about handling the big pots.
We visited a shelter for a couple of homeless people under a bridge near Josh’s studio. The lined-up recyclables made for something of a street art installation.
We stopped by our friend Gabe’s to help lift a large timber beam for the house he’s building. Watch HERE.
It was a full day and I was happy to crash at Josh and Emily’s new farmhouse in Marshall. I was humming Dylan’s Lay Lay Lady during this scene.
The next morning we had a good breakfast before getting to work, preparing for Josh and Emily’s “We Bought a House Housewarming Party.” Guess what they’re reading? The Floyd Press!
And Look who came to dinner that night.

I think they’re going to paint over it. Remember Raleigh Rd? We’re at the party now!

I like the yellow as well, because that is the color of my living area. Glad you son and his gal are so, so, happy!
