    We hear President Obama may want to retire to Asheville. We would love to have him, Mrs. Obama, and Mrs. Robinson (the First Lady's mother) as members of the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at UNC Asheville. An added attraction: UNC Asheville and the Reuter Center are very close to 12 Bones! ashvegas.com/obama-in-ashev...

    I think it's pretty sweet, that after one of the biggest speeches in his term, the first place he speeks at is in Asheville! #Obama #avl
