Fall is just around the corner,and with it comes beautiful autumn colors; orange and yellow leaves everywhere… you know the ones…

I want to go where the leaves are turning and the forests are alive and bursting in their finest fall decor. I want to smell the freshness of cool autumn and pine needles and feel the lush damp bed of fallen leaves on the forest floor. Can you feel the damp, musty leaves underneath your feet? I almost can but it’s not like being there.

The grand kids will be out of school in a few weeks for Fall break – October 9th thru 13th to be exact; I think we’ll head off to Arkansas and follow the trail of falling leaves for that week.
