Our Day Long Outing in the Name of AUTUMN

Since in Florida we really don’t get much of fall/autumn we planned a nice day out with Grandma Jo and Grandpa Howie to see and do all things of the season.

We started at Hickory Nut Gap Farm and saw a few farm animals. For some reason I was terrified of the chicken.

The pigs were really funny. I wanted to know why they looked so clean when they lived in the mud.

HUGE horse tried to eat my hand. I was pretending to feed it apples… my own fault, huh?

We went into the corn maze as well. They had questions that ou had to answer to get a clue of which way to go.

I found a side way out and figured we were done. I was more interested in going to get a pumpkin!

We didn’t find any pumpkins that we liked so we opted for a apple cider-cicle! YUMMY!

One last shot and then on the road to the NC Farmers Market to look for pumpkins.

We found an amazing booth that had tons of different pumpkins and other gourds.

I picked out a HUGE pumpkin but Mommy talked me into a “ghost pumpkin” that was all white!

We stopped to grab some pizza to go on the way back to the house to drop off the goods from the market. The mini-van freaked out and the car would not start back up. We got a jump from a nice employee at the restaurant and zipped back to the house and dropped things off and then headed to Honda to have the car checked out. Honda said there was nothing wrong with the battery so we loaded up and went in search of non-pasturized apple cider and a few apples to pick.

I LOVEd picking apples and sampling them as I went along.

I found as apple tree hide-out. We hunkered down and snacked on our treats.
