Ahhh.... Land of Sky (Asheville)

We're here in Asheville! We've missed these beautiful mountains and the great friends who live here. We had lunch with Mike Zboyovski at Marco's Pizzeria. It was fun to catch up, and Mike was nice enough to bless Tino's new wedding ring. (He kinda flushed the first one.)



After lunch we went to the Shoji Retreat Center. The drive up through the mountains is NOT for the faint of heart! The hot tub soak, views, dry skin brushing, and massages were definitely worth it. We've had serviceable showers during the trip, but we had huge spa showers... mmmmm!




We found Ultimate Ice Cream on the way back to the campground. We tried the Ginger and Belgian Dark Chocolate (M.E.) and Cinnamon-Hazelnut and Maple-Bacon (Tino) ice creams.

  1. The only thing that sounds better than a massage and ice cream is maybe a massage WITH ice cream (albeit a little cold).

    I'm just not convinced about bacon as dessert, and I've tried a few of them. My conclusion is this: Why mess with perfection?
