October 2023 - Hendersonville, NC

September came and went fairly uneventful other than the semi-annual deep cleaning and a short overnight visit from Plish and John who had come up from their condo in Calabash on their way to a visit with their niece and family in Simpsonville.  No pictures...just nice memories of time spent with long time friends.  Aside from cleaning, Fall calls for a trip to the NC mountains and the apple orchards.  Bob suggested an overnight stay so we didn't feel rushed sight seeing. We traveled to Hendersonville, about 80 miles from us, but over a two hour drive because of the winding mountain roads.  Downtown Hendersonville with its boutique artisan shops was teeming with tourists, so we stopped at a couple of orchards, then traveled west along Hwy 64 to Franklin, NC and spent the night there before going home the next morning.  The fall colors and scenery made the trip worthwhile.

One of the roadside apple stops.
And a field of sunflowers as far as you could see.
