We left Raleigh at 8:30am. It started raining heavily as we drove. We stopped in Black Mountain. It is a small town with interesting stores. At noon we found a cafe open for lunch. The food was very good. The rain had slowed to a drizzle so we wandered around town. We got to Montreat at 2pm and drove up through the small college before going to our hotel.
The rooms are sparse – no TV or phone. Obviously, the Lack of TV bothered me the most.



We live in Winston-Salem, love NW North Carolina. I hope you have an opportunity to visit Asheville – it’s a wonderful place. Very much enjoy your blogs 👍🏻
