Since moving to Asheville a little over a week ago, I’ve attended three Meetup events…a walk and two social get-togethers. I took three classes at the Asheville YMCA. It’s only about a mile and a half from my place. I also walked a little over a mile from my temporary home to downtown and checked out the Woolworth Walk. There’s an old-time soda shop and lots of art to view and or purchase.


I took a short bike ride along the Reed Creek Greenway which connects with some other areas to cycle.


Sunday I hiked with a new group called the Carolina Mountain Club. The hikers are mostly in their ’70s. I think it’s great that older people do their best to stay fit. As usual, the view from one of the overlooks along the Blue Ridge Parkway was stunning!


This morning I’m headed to Flat Rock, located about 35 minutes south as a volunteer to mentor 7th graders.
