Bonfires and Autumn Nights

It has turned colder here. No longer do we leave the house without sweatshirts or coats on. Being near a bonfire is welcomed as we try to keep warm and enjoy the change of seasons. So here are five songs that inspire enjoying the outdoors.

Beautiful Fall Drives Nearby

Our weather seems to be all over the place right now. One day it is cold and rainy then the next it is mid-70s and sunshine. I actually don’t mind either type of day when the local scenery looks the way it does right now. So in honor of all the beautiful fall colors I get to see in my own backyard; here are 5 drives you can take to witness it for yourself.
