We’re at an RV park south of Canton for the last trip of the season. When we get home I’ll unload the trailer, set out the mousetraps, have the water system winterized and store it away.
We were here last year at this time but it was cold and rainy and we really didn’t get to see the leaves. This year they’re spectacular!
Weather cooled off and a wind came up. Great time to chill in front of the “fireplace,” which is kind of goofy but includes an electric heater.

Yep. We decided to take a fall drive down the Ohio on the Kentucky side to Augusta, home town of Rosemary and George Clooney. Beautiful little river town. Lunch now at the very old Beehive Tavern, Kentucky Hot Brown of course. Then take the ferry across the river and back on the Ohio side.

From our table.

Nice!
-
I’ve just been informed that we are going to the Rosemary Clooney Museum. World’s largest collection of White Christmas memorabilia.
-
Well I'd be thrilled. Seriously, that is one of my all-time favorite movies. I've seen it so many times I have the dialogue memorized. And I love Rosemary Clooney.
So, how do you feel about going?
-
My favorite too!
-
Which electric fireplace is that? I just ordered one after a lot of looking around.
-
Made by “Furrion”. They specialize in RV appliances.
I put one in at the lake last year and I like it. Let me see if I can find it again.
-
I think it’s this one. Super easy to install.
-
I looked on Furrion's website. Pretty nice. I see they have units with the crystals or that have "logs".
-
I’m just delighted. Actually I’m sitting in the White Christmas room while she takes the tour. Here are the Sisters dresses and fan. Janet and her sister used to sing that song all the time and loved the movie.
-
@Steve-Miller beautiful!! We have lots of nice colors here too.
@Mik what fun!
-
thanks for the links on the fireplace. Unfortunately they don't have one you just hang on the wall. Which is what I'm looking for. But that's the most real-looking electric unit I've seen, as far as the way the flames look.
-
It just hangs on the wall. Very easy install.
-
Nice pictures, Steve and Mik!
Fall is my favorite season. I remember it being great in the Mid- Hudson Valley. The air was cool and crisp and of course the leaves.
Even here, we're into the low to mid '80's down to the very high '60's.
It's a lot more comfortable.

Average high for October 29th: 57 degrees.
Record high (1999): 78
New record high (2024): 82Warm, windy, and dry. I still have a tomato plant growing in a pot. Very strange weather.

Got to Tucson yesterday. The drive though southern Colorado and New Mexico had a lot of bright autumn colors make the drive a delight.
Saw 4 carriages drawn by dark bays. One Bay was a high stepper. Saw a man and two boys. From their clothing I assumed they are Amish.
Now I know what the wide shoulder lanes are for.
