Mt. Washington ~~ Hello Fall

Monday was Mike’s birthday so we took a trip up to Mt. Washington. 
This mountain holds a special place in our hearts and every year we make it a point to go up to the summit to enjoy what this mountain has to offer.  I am always amazed at the beautiful sceneries.  Photographs do not do this mountain justice!

This wasn’t Ryan’s first time up this mountain. 
Here is a look back at his first trip up Mt. Washington.IMG_0151

I’m not surprised that he didn’t remember it!

This year he was much more enthusiastic about the journey.  He had a lot more to say about the scenery and asked a lot more questions. 
Before we made it to the Mt. Washington Auto-Road we stopped along the way to see some sites and admire the foliage.  That’s right…Fall Foliage!!  Welcome Autumn.
