So when I first took a trip to the Asheville area and the mountains of western North Carolina about seven years ago, I was pleasantly delighted by the cool summer days and nights — and no bugs! So pleasantly delighted that I bought a home there, planning to spend my summers in the fresh air and lush greenery of the oldest mountains on earth. After a while an unexpected thing happened: I began to dread going home to the coast. September in the mountains turned into October and then November and even when the leaves were gone we were still there, my family and I. And before I knew it, as springtime heated up south Alabama, we began heading for the hills again in April. It's marvelously refreshing in mid-August to sleep under a light blanket with the windows open, or wade in clear chill mountain streams to cast for trout.
