The leaves are not at their peak, but the leaves are changing. Day loves boiled peanuts so we stopped by a peanut and apple stand (they are dotted along every road) and bought a bag and tasted cinnamon apple cider. We drove to Jasper on Day's birthday Thursday to look at bolts of colorful fabric in a quilt shop, then ate at an excellent farm-to-table restaurant next door.
Yesterday we went to Clayton and drove a beautiful curvy mountain road to Highlands, North Carolina. Between Clayton and Highlands, we spent about an hour at a roadside gourd sale--we love gourds! Carlene got a purple painted gourd and we bought unpainted and painted gourd bird houses for gifts. Then we shopped for another hour at a crafts shop. These are my favorite kinds of days--good meals and conversations, poking around!
