A Fun Fall Weekend

Aaron and I headed out Saturday morning on our second big motorcycle trip of the season. We headed down to the White Mountains in Laconia, NH with about 8 other bikes. We took mostly back roads to get there so we could enjoy the fall scenery. Even though the leaves had started to die, it still made for a gorgeous ride!

Sunday afternoon, Aaron and I went on a hunt for pumpkins and apples. We were told that Rocky Ridge Orchard was the place to go. They had a large orchard with various apples. They also had a little bakery there where you could get just about anything. We tried the pumpkin cinnamon doughnuts and were not disappointed. Although the place was nice, we didn't walk away with any pumpkins. All they had were huge ones and I can't justify paying a lot of money for a pumpkin. It makes me crazy actually! But we did leave with doughnuts, cider and apples for pie.


We ended the day at our favorite wharf for lobster and fish. I am really going to miss having fresh seafood when we leave here. The Five Islands Lobster Co. is delicious!

I really do like fall. There is something about the temperature and the smells this time of year that make you feel so at home!
