With a multiplicity of trees, shrubs and flowers burst-, ing into annual Spring splendor, the dilemma is—Which way to go? However, fretting over an answer to this question is really unnecessary as one thing is for certain— regardless of the route the tourist will be well reward ed. Realizing this, my family and I left our choice to the flip of a coin. The coin said, “Go West!,” so we started. We stop ped off at the neighborhood service station to fuel up and pick up a fresh map. In retro spect, the securing of the road • map was unnecessary as I’m sure all had mace the same si- I lent mental choice of a westerly destination, an area that is de lightiui regardless of the sea son. After a few hours’ drive through territory generally re splendent with Spring color, we arrived. Our destination was the un official capital of Western North Carolina, popularly referred to as the “Land of the Sky.” A jewel of a city, set in velvet gupen among the rumpled moun tains of the Blub Ridge at an artitude of 2309 feet, Asheville is among the first and foremost resort areas of the South. Be cause of its accessibility to the rest of Western North Carolina, many visitors use the city as “home base” and make circle trips to the numerous nearby attractions and return. How ever, this particular journey had been made to view the not of Spring mountain color in Ashe ville and surrounding territory, ail of wnich would not be avaii able a few weeks thereafter. We drove into the near-cen tral section of the city and pick ed up the “Dogwood Trail” at Patton and Biltmore Avenues. We found that sign markers, numbered consecutively, clearly identify the entire route so there is iittie likelihood that one will unknowingly leave “ttje trail.” If you hurry on oyer, you too can enjoy the yellows, the pink, the whites and thd reds dotting the trail, and meat /Particularly, the white and pink splashes ever-present across the rolling landscape profuse blooms of our State flower, the Dogwood. At the same time you will get to see a large cross-section of this beautiful city as the mark ers lead you through a portion of the northerly and southerly sections and return you to the point of origin. As you cover "the trail,” be sure to read the brief descriptions of the points of interest. ' By this' time our appetite for color had been whetted and we craved more. Upon questioning Several residents as to another desirable local route, I received .he same quizzical look from each and the same type of re sponse. What they were saying <.without offense) was, “Take yoUr choice of any direction, mister, the color’s all around your’ In the absence of a speci ic recommendation, a family huddle resulted in the decision _o head south, on Biltmore Ave-, nue to the Biltmore Gardens. Here we found a display of at bewildering wealth of flora that delights garden enthtetiksts arid color photographers the world jver! Aside from acres of trees and shrubs in natuial settings, there are five formal gardens which, together with the gieen aouses, cover thirty-five acres. Particularly beautiful at this season is the Azalea Garden with more than 500 Variet.es. All in all, there afe 40,000 azal ,as on the Biltmore Estate; the; _>nly complete collection of na-‘ tive American kinds in. the world. The greenhouses alohe ate worth a visit. Here are • grown the plants and cut flow ers which continually grace the Biltmore Mansion, and the giant .topical palms and fems which keep green the famed Court of Palms. More than beautiful, his estate has one of the very few large private gardens left in America. During our general sightsee ng the next morning, we fol .owed the implied recommenda .ion of tire natives and found them to be correct as “the color was all around ua." I’m sure time commitments on this trip i prevented us from enjoying many more sections, equally colorful. And we’ve yet to see . the many, many other natural . and man-made attractions in the , “Land of the Sky.” We merely: • sampled the wonderful scenery, 1 the modern accommodations ahd ' delightful food' and hospitality, i But the Sample was good and we’.l return to this section of i Variety Vacationland.
