Black Mountain, NC

It's a snow day here in North Carolina so I decided it would be a good time to update everyone. I survived my first week with the new crew: living, working and eating together. That's a lot of time together, in case you didn't know. I have my own room, which is nice, and share a bathroom with one other girl.

The food is pretty good. They feed us breakfast, lunch and supper (they don't say dinner here) most days. We're at the YMCA Blue Ridge Assembly which is situated in the Blue Ridge Mountains of the Appalachians. The food is also local faire...sweet tea, biscuts and gravy and breaded and fried fish. They do serve salads though.

It's pretty here, with lots of big rivers and mountains all around us. I look forward to riding my road bike around and going for trail runs, but the cold and the snow have me sitting inside wanting to take a nap. Of course I'm one of the very few early risers on the crew. Breakfast this morning was at 0730 and there was only two of us. A big group went out on the town last night. I do plan on heading to a yoga class at 3pm today.
