Another great edition with broad interests from Nina's story to Vanderbilt history & foraging for food in NC - excellent.

Great writing, you captured Asheville perfectly. As you wrote about the road trip from Charlotte to Asheville it took me back. So much fun and fond memories. So glad to have meet you and hopefully our paths will cross again in another Next Tribe adventure. All the best, Biff

Thank you! I tried to do the trip justice. I’m sure we as Next Tribers will meet again soon!

Great write up! I've been wanting to vist Asheville for quite a while, and this only made me want to go more.

Seeing that glass sculpture alone seems worth making the trip.

That glass garden was pretty cool. And that was just one room of the exhibit!

Terrific stuff, Thea. Thanks a million for sharing your journey and for spreading the power of community within art forms. Excellent work, my fellow Michigander.

Oh, and I love Asheville. I had a day there last summer and thoroughly enjoyed it. My socialist tendencies wouldn't;t let me pay big bucks for the Biltmore tho, ;)

Here is the saga should you care to read it. Thanks again for this article. Really enjoyed it.
