Today we are taking a little detour from the NC Transportation Museum and heading towards Grandfather Mountain in Linville to show you the beautiful autumn colors. It seems that so far this fall each time we go on an adventure it rains and this time was no exception but added to mix was snow, fog, wind and just darn right cold now you would think that would stop all of us from visiting the mountains the weekend of the October 17th fat chance there were tons of us brave souls who venture out to check it out.

One of the things I love when we go on our adventures is to take photos from the car while the hubby is driving he only has one stipulation and that is for me to stay on my side of the car which sometimes can prove difficult when there are neat things to photograph on his side.

Below are a few scenes from the car as we headed towards Grandfather Mountain.
