The last day of the road trip started with a visit to the Southern Highland Craft Guild. During the summer demonstrations are held and I talked to a woodcarver for a long time. The building has a museum of folk art items and also a very large store of every kind of hand made item imaginable.
The next stop was downtown Asheville to the Grove Arcade, a shopping mall constructed in the 1920s. The building is beautiful and it's a good place to catch lunch. There are a variety of interesting stores there, including a fiber craft store and a used bookstore that doubles as a champagne bar.
The last stop was DuPont State Forest that houses several impressive waterfalls that were used in the filming of the Hunger Games movies. High Falls is especially impressive and offers a lot of photo opportunities.
