When Suzanne isn't working, chances are you'll find her walking, dancing, listening to some local tunes or just poking around in the local shops.

Having always felt as though I have two left feet, I decided it was time to stop sitting and start dancing! So, I joined the Zydeco Dance Club...whoa!  The first couple of dances I felt like I had three left feet, but I'm getting better. Men no longer run in fear of having their shines kicked (you wear cowboy boots for the best effect) and my swings no longer injure fellow dancers. And my I just say, this is a great work-out, in addition to just plain fun! There are Zydeco bands playing locally but several weeks ago we hit the road for a weekend of dancing in Daphne, AL. Watch for some pictures...we had a blast!

Finally the rain stopped (our water table is well filled at this point) and I spent this past Saturday just wondering around our lovely downtown Asheville! There wasn't a cloud in the sky when I headed out, sunscreen on and my walking shoes on. Four hours later, I have to admit, I was dragging, but I had hit the high-points of downtown- up Biltmore Avenue, down Broadway, cross to 5 Points, over to Montford, back up to Grove Arcade and finally headed back up Biltmore Avenue to Kenilworth. That last half mile was straight uphill! Must admit, I felt very virtuous...and exhausted. Did take some pics along the way...enjoy!
