McConnell’s Mills – A Sunday Fall Afternoon Hike

/ Jodi / 12 Comments

I can’t think of a much better way to spend a Fall Sunday afternoon than a hike at McConnell’s Mills State Park on a crisp October day with an all-time best friend.

McConnell’s Mills is only 30 minutes from our home; and I am shocked to say it has been years since I have visited.  That will not be happening again!  Janet and I spent three glorious hours hiking around the beautiful state park.

Enjoy the adventure with us.

A Fall Sunset Cruise

/ Jodi / 14 Comments

It was an absolutely AMAZING Fall Weekend here in Western Pennsylvania.  Who couldn’t love Fall with this kind of weather!?!

The crisp mornings were perfect for brisk early walks and baking yummy apple treats (like yesterday’s Apple Dumplings).

The days warmed up with bright sunshine and deep azure skies sprinkled with cottony clouds.

And the evenings – oh so extraordinary – cooled to perfect weather for a picturesque sunset cruise.

Now granted – a sunset cruise around these parts is in a Bass Tracker with Captain Marty and First Mate Mikey on Lake Arther, but check out the amazing beauty from our little piece of the world.
