Do you like to eat? Asheville has some wonderful restaurants. I can make 3 daily meals last half the day there.

I've never bothered with the Biltmore, but it is the largest private home built in the US and I'm told it's impressive. They have a winery that produces good wines.

The breweries: you don't have to drink beer to enjoy. They serve other beverages. And they are a social hub. I have had hours of pleasant conversation with strangers sitting at picnic tables there. I have had fun listeneing to live music, dancing and playing games (like cornhole). There are also a couple nice wine bars. Almost every restaurant and bar has outdoor seating.

Shopping: Asheville has loads of stores selling locally made crafts like soap and honey and baskets and dulcimers. There are galleries with hundreds of artists represented. There is an excellent independent bookstore where I could spend hours.

Sports: Winter visits AVL. There are ski areas nearby, some let you sled. In summer, kayaking and tubing/rafting are popular.

Culture: A hippie/leftist city is not completely expected in the south. It really stands out as a unique place. It is a small city, however, so it can be completely covered in 3 days or less.

If it doesn't sound right for you, then, cancel. But it is one of my favorite places in the US and if you've been to all the big cities, it's worth a look. By all means, a great stop if driving from point A to point B and you find yourself passing closeby.

Beer: Maybe you would like it but just haven't tried any good beers.
