Fall Getaway: Part 1

Fall is in full swing in our neck of the woods and I'm in love with all of it. The air is definitely

crisp, the leaves are just starting to change, and our dinners are becoming a little warmer and cozier.

In order to get a full grasp of this whole fall thing, a totally new concept to us, we thought

we needed to get out of the city and head north to New England. (We did have an ulterior

motive for heading north to other states, but that's another story for another day.)

 

Let me just say that New England is like "Fall Wonderland". No wonder there are actual

fall foliage tours that take place here. Trust me, we saw some!

 

I'll try not to bore you with picture after picture of yellow, orange, and red leaves (I hate to rub
it in to family and friends in AZ still battling 90+ degrees), but I may not be able to
control myself. It's just too beautiful! Anyway, here's a glimpse, part 1, at our weekend favorites.

A breathtaking waterfall just off the road in Connecticut

 

 Oh, and a quick kiss by that very same waterfall

 

Playing in the leaves like a child...and loving it!

 

The Mr., watching fly fisherman below, and wishing he was by their side

 

Eating lunch at adorable little cafes like this. Great food with a small town feel.

Visiting the Norman Rockwell Museum. We love his paintings of classic American life.

Strolling through quintessential New England towns like this.
Burlington, Vermont and its farmer's market were basically picture perfect.

And of course, looking at hills of golden leaves.

 

 Stay tuned for part 2 and more pictures.
