Need some good day trip ideas for the mountains

Recommended Posts

Taking the fam Friday. I know and love the mountains but looking for something off the beaten path.

Anybody got some cool, recent stuff they have done/seen recently up that way?

Not sure where we are going yet. Maybe this side of Asheville or Boone or Chimney Rock or Blue Ridge. If we get this cabin it's in Jefferson.

Got a house up there, Boone is 20-25 mins from Jefferson, so you can try anything there. All the Asheville stuff is too far.

In downtown W. Jefferson there is a little bit to do art shops, cheese plant, restaurants. Canoeing on the river, fishing, couple golf courses close too.

Cashiers area is awesome. I'd recommend renting a boat at Glenville for a day or two, go to Carolina Smokehouse, shrooms & hiking

If more North, go to Linville Falls, Beech Mtn. (my stomping grounds), & Mast General Store. Too bad you missed the Wooly Worm Festival that sh*t rocks

You can go to the old OZ theme park, they open that up annually in the Fall at the pinnacle of Beech

    • I think they are holding back to see what they have in the young guys, but I think it's a near certainty at some point they will bring someone else in. Right now (assuming we keep 5 CBs which is normal), the top 5 IMO are: 1) Jaycee Horn 2) Mike Jackson 3) Chau Smith-Wade 4) Shemar Bartholomew  5) Akayleb Evans   Obviously Jaycee is the alpha in that room and paid as such. Need him to stay healthy and continue to play at a Pro-Bowl level. Mike Jack did pretty well all things considered last year, and they gave him lower-level starter money. Fair deal for both sides.  Smith-Wade showed some promise as a slot CB. I think low-key he's a lock for the team. Different size and skill set than the other CBs. Shemar Bartholomew was the most sought after waiver claim last preseason. Was 5th CB most and inactive most of last year. Had a few defensive and ST snaps. Nothing of note good or bad but too small a sample size to make any judgment. Akayleb Evans was a 2022 4th Rounder for the Vikings. Has started 19 games (including Week 18 for the Panthers) in his career and played in 43. Was pretty good in 2023 before getting injured and falling down the depth chart last year. There's some other guys on the outside looking in, but until they show more in training camp I dont see anyway they make the 53. And only Jaycee, Mike Jack, and Smith-Wade are locks to make this roster IMO.  
    • Was just reading the Ask the Old Guy story on the team's website and was shocked to see that only two 2nd Rounders have signed so far, 30 of them haven't. That isn't normal, the Texans really screwed things up for the rest of the league, no other explanation that I can think of for 30 of the 32 picks to still be unsigned at this point.
    • They need to address CB before season starts. This is not going to cut it.
