A new state!
Hops and I rolled into Boone, NC in the afternoon, checked out the town a bit before bed…
walking the T. K. Pease Overlook Trail
scouting some trails
Appalachian Mountain Brewery
And the next morning, I rode the gorgeous trails at Rocky Knob.
on Boat Rock trail
“Middle of Nowhere”
By the time I finished, though, I was very dirty and very cold. We fled to lower elevations, finding a perfectly lovely spot in the Pisgah National Forest.
comfy, and warmer
and there was more art nearby, on the side of the road
While I enjoyed Boone very much, the presence of ski equipment (cold!!) and lack of visible diversity make this a place I’d visit, not live.
Asheville tomorrow, though…
