We got off to an auspicious start when I convinced John not to disrobe at Biltmore Village.
We had coffee and pastry, even though we had just eaten breakfast, at the Well Bred bakery. See the sign between us in the background?
Vanderbilt was an episcopalian, so e had this charming church built in town. Windows re by MacKenzie, a contemporary of Tiffany and LaFarge.
These are some tables I want. Any one would be fine.
I really want this platter, or anything by this artist. I'm sorry I didn't buy one yesterday in Black Mountain where they were slightly more than half the price
The bathroom in the wonderful craft store. After this we went back to River Arts District. They have a lot of very small galleries/studios in the area. This area has to be the pottery center of the world. There is so much wonderful pottery here.
When we could no longer put one foot in front of the other we went to Curate, a tapas restaurant (menu below). We just keep ordering more dishes. Everything was so good. When we walked out, the thunderstorm we had carried umbrellas around all day in expectation of, started. We had parked pretty far away, so we had no other option but to stop for dessert before we went to the car.
We leave Asheville tomorrow for Madison, Georgia. It's supposed to still be raining in the morning, but we hope to make it to Athens in time to go to the art museum there.
