Fall Festival.....but NCC

Yesterday was a gorgeous blue sky day, pretty much quintessential fall! We went for a motorcycle ride out to the west toward the mountains. We ended up at what was supposed to be a hot air balloon festival (on a very small scale) but alas it was super-windy, so no balloons.

Here is how pretty the day was:

There was an antique firetruck show.

 Another firetruck with a pretty background...oh, and John.

Only in America....Grown men racing around on souped-up lawnmowers!

 

 

 

How silly is this?

MONSTER truck ride, anyone?

On the ride home through the scenic Virginia countryside, we saw what was once a gas station, way back when. It looked like a good photo-op.

And finally, the route home took us past a restaurant that serves a kick-ass Reuben sandwich. We rounded out the day (and our bellies!) with a nice dinner.

Jimmy would have thought this was a tavern just for him!

We've had A LOT of rainy weather this fall, so it was great to get out and enjoy the sunshine and scenery!
