What a beautiful story and gorgeous house!! I loved Asheville when I visited a few times, so European-looking. I remember they even had a 'Cafe Europe' there about 20 years ago. I spent 2 years at ETSU uni in Johnson City, TN. 😊

No kidding! ETSU was a client of mine, I represented Lee Bidgood’s film Banjo Romantika to PBS stations nationally.

Small world! All I know about banjo is from my roommates back in the day who were in the student banjo band. Here's my story about it: https://monicanastase.substack.com/p/from-north-to-south-climate-influence-behavior

The quote by Glorie Abelhas that’s been taped to our fridge or stove since my husband and I met reads : Good fortune shies away from gloom. Keep your spirits up. Good things will come to you and you will come to good things. You are living proof of this.

A house really needs to b lived in to make it a home. Sounds as if you did a great job.

You are proof that when you imagine it you can create it. Well done right down to the foundation. May not make Architectural Digest but it has such good stories in it and about it that it stands as a testimony to your loving what you're doing, or, at least, did. Curator and Creator, your talent shines like you.

Just like us, full of many stories - a well-storied life for the record. So many stories, so little time. Keep sharing your stories within the story. Love your style.
