It was time to get away and what better way than to spend a weekend with girlfriends! Originally, Susie and I were planning a trip to see our good friend Traci, who lives up in Indiana. We were rather slow in getting our airline tickets and with the holidays coming up...the prices soared as well. With Susie just recently having a baby, she really needed to get away, so we stayed at Jack's parents house for a little R & R. Thank you Phyllis and Bob for all of your wonderful hospitality and the lemon Martinis! Yum. We really missed being able to see you Traci and we owe you a weekend now! :)
For our little mini getaway, we visited the Biltmore Estate on Saturday and then went to the winery for a tour and some wine sampling. We bought a few bottles to share with our hubbies, as well as some fudge. Afterwards, we visited Barleys downtown for some locally brewed beer and awesome pizza. We next went to a bar near the house and had an interesting experience with rednecks singing Karaoke in their Halloween Costumes!! Who needs to go see downtown Asheville, when you can just go to the local bar?
On Sunday, we had brunch at the Grove Park Inn which was a real treat. Afterwards, we walked around the new spa and enjoyed the incredible mountain view. Susie, thanks for the great weekend and the yoga workouts. ....thanks Matt and Baby Brock for letting me take mommy away! :)
....Next time Traci, we will have to make sure we are with you.
