A Crisp Autumn Day

Our family recently went on a day trip to Apple Hill in Placerville, California.  It was a wonderful time to enjoy the beautiful scenery painted by God.  The leaves were falling in a beautiful array of colors-coppers, golds, reds, and oranges.  It was a perfect time to enjoy being together.

Before arriving in Apple Hill, we stopped at Sutter’s Mill.  This historical site is the location where gold was first discovered.  This discovery of gold led to the biggest migration of people in American history.  It is amazing how one little action changed the landscape of our country.  Some of the original buildings and equipment still stand.

I wish we could have spent more time enjoying this site, but we had to move on to Apple Hill to meet friends.  I’m sure it will be a place we return to again soon.

This girl was meant to ride horses! We might have to think about getting her lessons in the future.

I wish I could have gotten her to smile, but that’s kids, right?

It was a wonderful day, good food, good friends, and beautiful scenery.

Thanks for stopping by!
