Asheville, NC trip

Bec and I spent a long weekend in Asheville, NC. We visited the Biltmore Estate, ate at some awesome restaurants, drove parts of the Blue Ridge Parkway and hiked a little. We also got to visit some of my friends in town, which are our friends:)

Pics in no particular order.

So I am a little slow with the blog. At least I've never practiced witch craft and am running for public office. Pics mostly in some order from most recent to older. I didn't incl pics from my Calif trip since those are online already.

Nick and his e-collar. He's licking the stitches and I'm not letting that happen.
