Feels Like Winter

Temperatures are below 32 degrees here in the tiny town of Hillsville. While driving around town, you see Christmas lights, and trees in the windows.  All the lights, tinsel, and ornaments seem to be up and Christmas is just around the corner.  Here at Red Hill General Store we are ready for Christmas as well:

Treasure In the Blue Ridge: The Lost Confederate Gold

Tomorrow is the big day!  Red Hill General Store is having its day long treasure hunt!

We would love it if you would attend!  Come back and share your experiences with us here in our blog.

Autumn Has Set In

The chill was definitely in the air in little Hillsville, VA today.  The leaves were being blown around and while they look beautiful they do tend to create a mess in the yard.  But as with every year, the falling leaves bring back memories of being a child and playing with my Childrens Fan Rake, and Childrens Wheelbarrow in the back yard, gathering up all the leaves into one huge pile, just to jump into it repeatedly.  I'm sure as a child most people spent hours doing just that during those cool crisp fall days.

Another great memory, is the delicious pinto beans that were cooked all day long, so that they were nice, warm, and tender at dinner time.  Now, that is a memory easy to replicate, I'll just be sure to buy some beans from our store tomorrow and bring them home to cook this weekend.  You should stop by Red Hill General Store and replicate some memories of your childhood fall.

What are your favorite memories of your childhood autumns?  Have you blogged about them, feel free to link back to your autumn blog in our comments.

Halloween

Halloween is just around the corner.  I'm sure some of you are scrambling for some last minute ideas on creepy crawly decor.  We have come across a fellow blogger who was so kind as to feature one of our items in their blog entitled: The zombies are here (insert scream!)

They used our 1/2 pint milk bottles

1/2 pint is the 3rd from the left.

And turned them into:
