Boone, NC
Boone - Home Sweet Home -
2/26/2007As a young professional, I know now that Boone was an ideal place to grow up. Appalachian State University provides a stimulating and increasingly sophisticated feel to the town, and the outdoor opportunities are many. Unfortunately the popularity of Boone and ASU has led to hasty and ill-advised development, and soon the pristine mountainsides will be plotted off and sold to those incoming from other parts of the country. It is inevitable, and therefore imperative that it is done wisely so as not to ruin the true value of the area: its history, beauty, and sense of community.
