This afternoon, my family visited the quaint town of Paint Bank, where the buffalo really do roam the open fields. The weather was warm, the sky was clear, and the sun made the Fall leaves glisten with colors of lemon, auburn, and pumpkin. There were several pretty and unique bed and breakfasts, including a refurbished caboose that reminded me of The Boxcar Children. After getting our exercise by taking in the outdoor sights, we decided to enter the Swinging Bridge Restaurant and General Store for some tasty treats to enjoy later. And yes, there really is a suspending swinging bridge inside the restaurant that I did walk across.
Even the ride home was an "event" in itself. The colors on the leaves changed by the minute as twilight appeared. It was a feast for the eyes! Considering tomorrow is the first day of November, the Lord really gave my family a bonus day filled with many joyous memories. I had fun snapping one picture after another. Below is a short slideshow, although if you really want to experience some of the same delights as I did, I suggest visiting Paint Bank, Virginia in mid-to-late October.
