“What an adventure! Three days and two nights to walk from Old Fort to Asheville. The first day we walked through four tunnels. The leaves were in color and falling. For being so late in the fall, Andre was able to find and identify a good number of mushrooms. That night he shared some ghost stories by the fire and I think I heard some later in the woods.

The second day we passed through a long tunnel and by some creeks. We stopped in Black Mountain for a burger and a beer. Andre shared some about the local history and we were off again. On the second night I was cooking some Ramen and Andre threw in some Hen of the woods, peppers, and onions, and avocado hot sauce to make a simple feast.

Day three was pretty easy. We walked into Asheville on the tracks right behind Highlands Brewing! We enjoyed some cold beer, and hot food from the food trucks, and live music. That's a homerun in my book. "
