end of week one
Recap on our Sunday- went to Cherokee with Atlas. We saw the tourist overdone town..paid a lot more than I should have for an "authentic" Cherokee dream-catcher (animal product free), but saw a super pretty waterfall..and Atlas swam in a waterfall. Stopped at a road side stand for some local Blackberry cider on the way back to town.
Stopped by the brewery..met a local family and exchanged numbers so that we can all volunteer at LEAF, coming up. Made rice congee with mushrooms and snuggled with red wine on the couch.
***********************
All I can say is that in days I have become more than attached to the mountainside than I could have ever expected. I spent the day (Monday) attempting to be diligent and look into some of the areas closer to Asheville.
What I learned:
I do not want to live in Hendersonville. Even the JCPennys was the most depressing place I can recall being in-in goodness a while. The area's vibe wasn't the best.
I am a sucker for any camping/hiking supply store.
EarthFare Market is amazing.
Best moments of the day:
Getting Columbia shoes for $60 off
Walking through the natural grocery store
Listening to Indigo girls driving home to my home through the smokey mountains.
Maybe I am meant for a mountain town...and when I want to see a "big city" then the closest one of those is awesome and veg and green and not too far. Who knows. Definitely not me.
Maybe its just today...
the moon is changing so things are already weird enough...
---Balance is wanted here.
My slightly educated prescription: morning hike, late afternoon yoga class, and hammock on the mountainside for the night's debut of the (pink) full moon.
~goodnight. and remind yourself to breathe, no matter where you are, life is exhausting.~
