October, Finally

Dear Imaginary Friends,

October is my second favorite month, after April. It is a time of natural beauty in the landscape, a time for a plethora of visits to wineries and pumpkin farms, and long drives through the countryside.

The leaves turn orange and gold, shiver in the breeze, then fly away to woods dark and deep.

And what could be cuter than the Pumpkin Train at Homestead Gardens, for your favorite little one to ride?

Llamas Always Smile

The Llamas are chilling at Homestead Gardens. They are exotic, adorable, furry, and funny.

Our family visited them at Homestead Gardens back in October 2010, during pumpkin season. We rode a hayride to their barn. 

Homestead Gardens in Davidsonville, MD, has an excellent plant and decor selection.  You don't have to be a llama to like it there, but it helps.

Your Imaginary Friend,

Patsie
