Afternoon hike to the top of Mt. Pisgah

Family is visiting this week and yesterday TAG was able to get a little more time away from our Asheville Bed & Breakfast. He and his Dad made an afternoon hike to the top of Mt. Pisgah. It takes about 35 minutes to get to the trail head from our Asheville bed and breakfast. It was a little overcast, but the views were no less stunning. As you can see spring is just beginning at the upper elevations.








Arboretum

On Tuesday, May 6th we were able to get away from Asheville Seasons Bed & Breakfast for a couple of hours. We visited the North Carolina Arbetorum, which is just about 15 minutes South of the B&B. The Arboretum is well worth the $6.00 per car charge. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and makes for a relaxing day. You will find miles of hiking trails and well thought out gardens with many of the species marked. Following are just a few of the pictures taken while we were there. Enjoy!
