Fall in North Georgia

Yesterday, after Antonio's football game, we headed north to the Blue Ridge Mountains. 
Our first stop was Bert's Pumpin Patch.  WOW - was that place crowded! 

We picked up a couple of pumpkins, a few bags of popcorn, then on to our next stop.

Amicalola Falls

What a beautiful place!  We hiked the short trail to the falls and took a few pictures.  Then we drove up to the top of the falls for some more viewing.  The kids were starting to get cranky, so we moved down to the visitors center and looked at some of the animals they have (live snakes and some stuffed bears).

Once we got home, we decided to drag a table out in the driveway, start a fire, and carve pumpkins.  Well, I carved pumpkins, and the kids ran around the yard.  Once again, it would be a shame not to share a nice fire with friends, and a few nieghbors came over for a couple of beers and a chat.  In all, it was a perfect day of fun - I am really enjoying fall again!
