Happy holidays and new links!

Hey everyone,
Merry Christmas! We are relaxing at my parents' house in Baltimore, and wanted to take a minute to post some useful links for folks traveling to the Asheville area. The first one, www.ashevillenow.com, a site created by a friend of ours which has lots of information about the town, where to eat, where to stay, what to do while you're here, and great pictures of the beautiful mountains nearby. The others, www.ashevillecabinrental.com and www.asheville-cabins.com, are rental property sites for those thinking of staying for a long weekend and wanting a nice place to crash. You can also search for "Asheville rental cabins" on your favorite search engine and probably find more information than you know what to do with. The most convenient locations to stay would be in the Fairview or Lake Lure areas.
A few wedding updates: we picked a caterer, and a menu, which we'll be tasting early in January. It's going to be delicious! And speaking of delicious, we've also decided on a location for the rehearsal dinner. 12 Bones Smokehouse, a West Asheville phenomenon, was just given the honor of being called the best barbeque in the country on Good Morning America. And if there's one thing I always say about Good Morning America, it's this: they sure are the experts on barbeque.
Okay, that's it for now. I hope the winter holidays are treating you well and you are starting to look forward to a beautiful summer!
Love to all,
Katy
