Four days to go until I’m loading up Vinni and heading to Leatherwood! I could not be more excited either. Remember when you were a kid and how excited you got on Christmas morning to see what Santa brought? Well that’s exactly how I feel about this trip. I have been wanting to go to NC Mountains for YEARS to see the fall colors. Ever since I was a little girl I have LOVED Fall. Growing up in FL I didn’t get to see the changing of the leaves. The deep reds, bright oranges, and yellows of the leaves have always fascinated me. When I was little and we would come visit, I would always collect as many of the leaves as I could. I never did anything with them, I just wanted them.
Finally my time to visit the mountains and see the leaves changing is now. I also heard on the news that this weekend is the Peak weekend for leaves in NC! Just check out this picture I found on their website.
Aren’t the colors breathtaking? Well I won’t say too much more about this place because I plan to take lots of pictures and share it with you when I return.
What is Fall like in your part of the country? Do you get to experience the changing of leaves and all the beautiful bright colors?
