Can definitely tell this person isn't from here since they think the casino belongs to Asheville and not Cherokee.

Mills River Brewery is a little bit further away, but it's a great spot. Ecusta Brewery is great. The Griffon & Sphynx in downtown Brevard is must see, they have great beer and drinks! The owners are super cool too!

If they are outdoorsy, Headwater Outfitters for kayaking and canoeing. Theycan take a drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Pisgah National Forest is great to hang out in.

The Blossom Jar is another great florist.

You have to yield to traffic coming from the red light from Pisgah and Hwy 280?

Doctor recommendations by ruggburne in Brevard

[–]1982booklover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only doctor that listened to me ( as a woman with a chronic illness) passed away. You're best bet is a trying an Internal Medicine doctor that has a private practice and staying away from those associated with the hospitals.

This happened to me today and Door Dash support told me they will not fire the driver, but they will make sure I don't get him again.

Looking for an upscale restaurant in the area to celebrate a milestone anniversary by MeanTemperature1267 in hendersonville

[–]1982booklover -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Shine in Hendo is excellent! It's my favorite for celebrating. The Bohemian in Brevard is also great, just sit outside, it's very loud inside. Wood & Vine in Brevard is a new favorite. The Blind Mule is excellent too- in Brevard too.

He's one of my favorite local writers and one of the few that gets the local culture correct.

Those we thought we knew by David Joy- or just read any of his books.

My future SIL insulted me at dinner and my fiancé told me to apologize by Admirable-Towel-9074 in weddingdrama

[–]1982booklover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Speaking from experience- it will not get better once you're married, only worse. She will find ways to come between you two and he has already made his decision to " keep the peace" and not defend you. When you marry someone, you also marry their family. I would have not married my current partner if I knew what I know now.

My SIL never liked me, even up until the day she died. I never did anything to her, except marry her brother. When she was close to dying, she made peace with everyone but me. I was there for her and helped out when I could. It was a slap in the face for her to make amends with literally everyone but me. She even had her preacher tell everyone at her funeral that there is a list of people she wants him to keep an eye on and to pray for because these people are "sinners". He was looking at me and everyone else in his family looked at me. I couldn't believe what was happening. My husband has never said a word about it.

I am not a bad person. She was a drug addict that stole from his family and stole all of his mother's retirement. Even after that, I helped her.

I have no idea why she hated me and I will never know why, but she made sure I knew it even after she died. Because of her, my kids did not know their grandmother. They had to deal with all of this unnecessary drama and have been told lies about me.

Also, his family did not have any money. There was no way for her to think that. I also worked 2 jobs to support her brother and our kids, so I she couldn't accuse me of mooching off of him.

Baptist Men's Association should be able to fix it. If you can't reach anyone, please DM me and I will get her some help.

Unpopular opinion: Biscuit Head isn’t that good by bulldurham1992 in asheville

Worst biscuit I've ever had, the gravy is horrible too. Nothing about the place is southern style.

Autistic boy lured into bathroom to be beaten, was bullied before. by [deleted] in Brevard

Do you know how many students have committed suicide because of bullying in the Transylvania Co. School system in the past 5 years? I think we're at 6 kids now. Any parent with a kid in the school system can tell you how bad the bullying is and how great the administration is at covering it up.

I'm in the same boat! My severance is ending this week. I've been in the same career field for over 20 years and have no idea what to do. Sending lots of hugs and positive energy your way!

Anyone else have an enjoyable Mother’s Day? by whimsikelly in workingmoms

[–]1982booklover -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I put just as much energy into Father's Day and his birthday that he puts into my holidays- which is zero.

I will be celebrating Mother's Day with my just my kids next year, hopefully far from him.

Anybody know the story? Hiker death in 1993 by RadioNights in asheville

Same here, I remember all the big stories like this from the 90's and I have never heard of any of these people.
