Way back in September (which feels like a lifetime ago given all the craziness we've had going on the past few weeks), we headed west for our annual apple-picking, autumn-color fall weekend in Paonia. We usually go over Daniel's birthday weekend (the 28th) but ended up going a week early since Daniel's mum was coming into town the day after Daniel's birthday. We hit it too early and didn't see all that much fall color, but we had fun picking apples at our favorite little family-run orchard, Camelot Orchard, making and drinking cider, and just hanging out by one of our favorite creeks.
Waking up to the view at our campground, Erickson Springs, along Anthracite Creek.
Tinges of yellow, but not quite fall yet.
Yum, fresh-pressed cider!
Enjoying the view.
Whipping up some grub.
Daniel went off for one of his hikes and found this crazy huge mushroom!
We got stuck behind a swarm of sheep. The kids loved it!
A few more weeks and this will be a blaze of yellow-gold!
