Asheville is such a cool city. I was walking down the street and I came upon this really cool wall. Asheville fits into the stereotype of Appalachia in a unique way. Appalachia doesn't exactly fit into the modern, mainstream culture. Asheville fits into that non-conforming mold. 

Asheville is also home to some pretty unique music. A lot of this music has roots in traditional "Appalachian" music, using instruments such as the banjo and mandolin. I associate this alternate art with the alternate music because they both call Asheville and the Appalachian mountains home. #appalachianechoes
A guilded age crafted Basilica in the inner city of Asheville, North Carolina. Stain glass windows were amazing and the Last Supper presentation are beyond words. This must be seen if visiting Asheville.

Beautiful, historic hotel with a friendly front desk staff. We loved having access to downtown Asheville within walking distance. We were disappointed, though, that even with the thermostat set to 72 in our room (401), the vent blew very cool air all night.

Nothing like walking into a shop and asking for a sampler of their favorite smokey delights, then walking out later with a selection of 4 , including tasso, several sausages and some rib bones and a pig knuckle for the dogs. PJ has an amazing business that I would definitely put on my 100 mile gottagoto radar. #gottagoto.
