Day 20
After twenty days of traveling together, Helen and Maryanne had their first major fight. Helen was voted off the trip by the driver and she responded by saying she’d rather take the bus than ever get in a car again with someone as OCD as Maryanne.
Their entire morning hike consisted of fighting over were to go after Moab. Consequently they got lost on the trail and madder at each other.
Somehow they ended up at the train museum, which would have been nice if the other sibling hadn’t been there.
FINALLY, the twenty day candy fast was broken when in making up, Helen bought Maryanne a truffle and this was enough to earn her forgiveness for all her woes. (Helen also had a truffle.)
Similar to Asheville, the downtown had many cute and fun shops. Maryanne brought her jean ownership total up to two pairs for $25.
We accomplished one mission on our to-do list and saw a brewery, Carvers and sampled some beer. Maryanne had the Raspberry beer, rumored to be the strongest and Helen had the Brown ale, celebrated by name association.
We sampled Thai food as well and the curry was so hot, we both died a little, but it was a good death.
Returning home, there was an APPLE PROCESSING PARTY with Coral and her friends. This included over 200 apples being peeled and made into pies, turnovers, butter, sauce, jelly and cider!
Truly a delectable day: truffles, local beer, Thai curry and apples!

Okay, so you have to have some old sibling rivalry come out. Just think it used to be every 20 minutes, so 20 days is pretty good.
And it sounds like the day ended well with lots of good food choices...always a happy way to end the day.
You can look forward to loquat and mirabelle plum processing parties here..and lots of zucchinis too.
