It's Fall!

Fall in New England is so truly enjoyable. The trees are all aglow with yellows, bright reds, fuscias, and brilliant oranges. Last weekend we went on a fall drive, which may become a yearly tradition for us. It was absolutely gorgeous. It included a ferry ride across the Connecticut River, a french patissere (sp?) and a visit to Gillette Castle (Kiley kept asking where the princess was...). Yesterday we went to Pumpkintown, USA. Yes, it exists. A town complete with a saloon and barbershop full of scarecrow-like people with pumpkins for their heads. Pumpkin pigs and pumpkin cows. It's actually pretty cute. Today I'm hoping to hit the orchards for apples and mums. Yeah for fall!!!
