As adults we have this tendency to say "if I knew then what I knew now, I'd have paid more attention in school!" Well here's your chance. This tiny aquarium will impart more knowledge in a short visit than you probably take in most months if you take advantage of it. The interns and owner (a former teacher) are committed to answering questions. The things they are studying and sharing are amazing. If you go in and you want to learn and ask questions this will be an experience you won't forget. Think of the best science teacher you ever had, having an opportunity to show the world what she loves to talk about... and that is what you have here. Do yourself a favor, go, enjoy and learn!!

We called Roto Rooter on a Saturday night because my husband was unable to clear the clog that…read morebrought my kitchen sink drain to a complete stop, despite having worked to clear it ALL day. Roto Rooter was willing to come out that night, but we opted to wait till Sunday morning. There was NO EXTRA CHARGE for weekend service! What a blessing. The plumber arrived on time and worked diligently to clear the clog. He needed a 75' electric snake to get far enough down the pipes to reach the clog. He inserted and extracted the snake 3x to be sure he cleared it. It's been running better than ever! I would rate the plumber's work a solid 5. However... We were concerned about how much this fix would cost. Roto Rooter charges a $90 fee just to walk in the door. Then, they give you an estimate for the job. No problem thus far. The estimate was about what we expected (between $500-600); so we agreed to have him do the work. Here's why I'm only giving 3 stars... Once we agreed on the $500+ estimate, I went back to what I was doing before his arrival. Turns out, there was a second "deluxe" estimate presented to my husband, which included pouring a liquid enzyme down the drains "to help keep the pipes clear" going forward. This added over $100 to our bill, and my husband agreed to it! So now this visit was close to $700. I spent hours cleaning up the mess afterwards, so I can assure you every bit of liquid enzyme was washed right out to the sewer system. I felt scammed so am writing this to CAUTION you. BE ON GUARD AGAINST SCAM ADD-ONS!!! By the way, these plumbers work on commission!! Surprise!!!

While visiting Asheville for a long weekend from Washington, D.C., booking a Hood Huggers tour was…read moreone of the best things we did. Led by Mr. Dwayne, the tour is an hour and a half learning about the Burton Street Community, a historically Black neighborhood in West Asheville and the victim of gentrification and highway expansions. Hood Huggers was created to serve as a champion for the 1912 neighborhood and its long-time residents. My wife, eight-year-old daughter, and I booked a Sunday morning tour. Since it was just us, he gave us the option to walk it or take his little shuttle. Mr. Dwayne gave us the background on the area before Mr. Cotton, the grandson of the man who founded the neighborhood, joined us with a book of photos. After a drive, we ended at the Peace Gardens and Market, a sacred space for the community.

What a cool tour.

He showed us a lot of different areas that were Historical for the African-American community. He also shared a lot of historical information of the schools and colleges in the area that were very prominent years ago. I will definitely recommend this tour hands down to give you more of a historical African-American background of the city based on the money that we spent I feel that it was a great value for the tour that we received the service was outstanding by our tour guide and hands-down. I definitely would recommend this tour.
