All day in Asheville people were telling us we were going to be stuck in North Carolina because of the storm coming through. A couple people from my company even changed their flights so they could leave tomorrow morning.
Jokes on them. The storm's moving so slow that it's not going to hit Chicago until midnight. We barely had any delay at all.
When we landed, the boards showed us how lucky we were. If we'd been scheduled to land 90 minutes later, we indeed would have been stranded in North Carolina.
My overall thoughts of Asheville, NC:
- Mountainy
- Home of Thomas Wolfe
- Rainy
Food
Dinner - New York Strip : D- Unseasoned. Very Fatty. Too rare.
Lunch - Cold Cuts : C I mean, you know. Cold cuts are cold cuts.
Accommodations
Asheville Renaissance Hotel
Bed - A Very comfortable. Nice linens. Lots of pillows.
Shower - B Good shower head. High quality complimentary soap and shampoo. (Bath and Body)
Room - B+ Great view of the Mountains. Clean. Good TV. Internet, but I had to pay for it.
The good news? I'm back home in Chicago.
Bad news? We're about to be hit with our first snow storm of the year.
