Hometown Goodness

I love fall...it's my favorite season by far. The crunching leaves beneath your feet, the changing of the foilage, pumpkins and gourds, and of course jeans and sweaters. The smell of the air is different as well and it just puts me in good spirits. Stu Scholl, who's family has a farm out by where I grew up, has the greatest pumpkin and gourd patch. In the spring he has a huge strawberry field, then raspberries, then pumpkins and gourds. Nothing fancy, you pay by the honor system, which I love because it feels really "hometown-ish". This year he added a huge hay slide-I'll upload those pics in my next post- and a hay sofa backdropped with cornstalks and surrounded by a vast array of pumpkins...I love it there....if you didn't make it out there this year, make it a destination next year.

It's just a place that makes me feel good about living where I do. Thanks, Stu and family!
