However, we still had a fun time! We went to a farm about an hour away in Poolesville, MD, and the drive was just as scenic as the destination. I love fall. I know I've mentioned it before, but I really, really love changing leaves and crisp air and autum-ness. So even though there was no picking of apples whatsoever, we still managed to have a great time playing in the hay, petting farm animals, eating caramel apples, apple pie, and hot cider, and using an old-fashioned contraption to core and peel fresh apples. Still a fall wonderland!
This is my first trip with GW Trails, and I don't think it'll be my last. Thing is, I'm a novice hiker, so I need to get a bit more experience anyway! This trip doesn't add a notch to my belt in that sense, but at least I know how Trails trips work now. This one only cost $15 (plus whatever you buy there), but you can pay on GWorld! And I didn't take advantage of this, but if you're over 21 and have a license, you can drive people there and go on the trip for free! They rent cars and get zipcars, that's what the trip cost mostly goes towards.
Here are some pictures from the excursion:

| SkyGoat: they had this weird bridge contraption so goats could go from one pen to another--made me nervous. |
