Fall Photo and a little know fact about Fall

This Fall has been pretty wet . So the leaves are not as super as usual. But they still are great in our North Georgia Mountains

Fall Photos

Did you ever notice that our British and other English speaking friends use the word Autumn instead of Fall? They would say we can always tell an American because they say Fall instead of Autumn. Well I am here to tell you Fall is Shakespearean English. It was the word used at the time of our colonization. We have not changed the word or replaced it with Autumn. So when a British person speaks in a condescending manner about our use of the language, you can politely tell them to stick it in their steak and kidney pie. What could be more English than Shakespearean English!

Wordless Wed the Cabin

cabin in the woods

This pretty log cabin is set in the woods near Jasper. It is the real deal. It is over 100 years old. Around it are all Rhodies and Mountain Laurel. Next to it is a small spring fed pool. You can see the water bubbling up out of the spring. Many of these cabins are saved in the mountains. When you hike trails you are often rewarded with this site and maybe a bench or 2 to sit on. Nothing fancy or electronic. Just quiet contemplation.
