Thanks to my 45 minute wait in construction, thankyouverymuch, Lynnette beat me to Asheville, so she got all settled in the room, and then Sammy and I showed up with allllllllll the luggage. (You remember the luggage.)
We rested for a bit (driving so wears a person out....) and then decided to explore the heart of downtown Asheville for dinner. Lynnette asked the lovely hotel lady where we should go for some local food and she suggested the Early Girl Eatery. So we went! It was an artsy little place, and we got to hide away in a corner and catch up on life. (Translated: Bekah talked Lynnette's poor ear right off.)
You already saw this one on the recap - but the cobb salad I had really was very good. I've recently developed a strange love for avocado (?????) so I was really excited that this salad had that. In fact, it's pretty much why I ordered it.
And um...we might have ordered dessert. Couldn't finish the salad, but you can better believe I did everything short of LICK THIS PLATE.
After dinner, we walked around downtown Asheville for a while and then came back to the hotel, where we had my birthday party!!! CUTEST orange flip flops (and later in the week I may or may not have purchased a DARLING dress to match) - and pedicure stuff and (be still my beating heart) orange Essie polish.
And this part CRACKED us up. When we got back to the hotel for the night, I came in toting the massive suitcase, because I'd not lugged it in yet. We passed a guy walking OUT of the very busy lobby, and as he moved past me, he tossed over a "Lotsa luck" in a REALLY disgusted voice. Lynnette and I just looked at each other...what in the world? All we could figure was that he didn't make a reservation and they were full. We didn't bother to mention we'd had this room for a couple of months...because we're girls and we PLAN AHEAD.
