June 8 - Last day in Asheville...

Last day in Asheville, drove another  section of the Blue Ridge Parkway over to a little town called Weaverville...stopped at a viewpoint and this guy was all set up painting...how peaceful...




Then the next viewpoint this guy was playing his banjo...such a friendly soul....just playing and wishing everyone safe travels...





Drove the winding road down into Weaverville. We would not want to drive this road with the RV..

Spent some time browsing around town. We had hoped to visit the Wag Bar...a dog park with a bar for the humans...but with the storm coming and the time to "check in" ...paperwork for vaccinations etc...we realized we had run out of time...but we need one in Vernon!!

Back to Asheville... and because we had such a great experience at Hillman Beer yesterday....we just could not resist...
Lu met a friend whose hooman brings brings him here and he gets his own serving of bacon.. 

I so enjoyed having the rice bowl yesterday...it just happened again......George's burger was pretty darn good too!! My favorite place so far!!!

Then.........George ruined the mood and insisted on a tire rotation and clean clothes....

The sun is setting....time to get ready to search for fireflies..💗 We decided against touring the Biltmore ...just wasn't in the cards for us this time...maybe on a fall colours tour....

June 19 - Deadwood South Dakota to Bozeman, Montana

Left South Dakota this morning, through a part of Wyoming and into Montana. The scenery in this area is really gorgeous.  But before long the weather changed...storms up ahead and apparently through the night in Bozeman. Free night at the Walmart with about another 30  or so RV/camper vans......hoping for a quiet night...cold here tonight....used the furnace for the first time in a very long time on this trip...brrrr

Long time coming....

Image
 It's been a very very long 2 years waiting...patiently waiting.....for things to return to normal... We were set to embark on this same holiday in March 2020 when Covid changed everything for everyone. Now 2 years later, our travel furbaby has changed. We lost our beloved Gracie before we could enjoy another big trip with her.  She was an amazing traveller and we were so fortunate to have been able to make many memories with her over the 14 years of RV adventures! We loved every minute of it and miss her dearly. And then along came Lucy Lu. Oh the adventures she will have!

June 10 - Lazy day

Image
Today was a lazy day. As no cell service and wifi at the campground, I needed some down time to book some stuff. Found a great dog park and Lu made a new little friend... Like little....8 week old little pitti.... They had a great time and then back into town. Just like most towns outside of a National Park...there's a bear thing going on. We didn't stay long....little walking...late lunch and back to the trailer. George hitting the enormous candy store....$22.00 later.....omg Second night of firefly watching was even better than the first. We saw some Blue Ghost fireflies....the males stay lit for up to a minute and glow a soft blue colour...there are not many in this area as they are mostly in the Asheville forests so I was super excited to see them. On our way back I had a firefly on my hand for the longest time....he just kept walking and blinking and walking....💗 I never like to say that I won't see them again here in th...
