Happy Thanksgiving everyone,
Today I am most thankful for Jack, Erin, Scott and the rest of my wonderful family.  I am also thankful that it is no longer snowing and we were able to get to Asheville, NC.  A day late but we are here. 
We drove right into the great Thanksgiving week storm.  Rained from Winchester, VA to Max Meadows, VA on Tuesday.  Then the temperature dropped, and I mean dropped, and the snow started.  We decided that we would stay an extra day in Max Meadows and we were so glad we did.  It snowed all day but not much accumulation but the temperature kept dropping and then the winds started.  I think we had 40 to 50 mile an hour gusts.  I thought the roof was going to come off the motor home.  We survived and were glad we were parked!!! Today was cold but clear and no wind.  Was a beautiful drive to Asheville and we arrived without any drama.  We got situated and decided that we would go to Cracker Barrel for dinner.  Silly me, I thought there wouldn't be many people eating out.  Boy was I wrong.  We had an hour and 10 minute wait.  But really the food was good and you couldn't beat the price.  Thanks to Barbara and Chris for the gift card. 
Tomorrow the plan is to go to the Biltmore Estate and after we tour I am going to visit the shops. 
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving and remember only 27 days til Christmas.  Check back tomorrow or Sunday for an update on Asheville.
