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.
