For the first time this year we have both the house tour and a Sperry ville Apple Harvest Celebration, which will make this place an exciting place to be this weekend, and also make it a time to temporarily forget our fears that winter is just around the corner.
The Blue Ridge will provide the backdrop; the hard work and organization of volunteers will provide the stage show.
It will, certainly, be one autumn event discussed throughout the impending cold winter nights.
And, given the alternative — an October of nothingness waiting for the seige of winter to begin — I, for one, am anxious to maintain any level of outdoor activity without first having to build a fire to stay warm.
There will be time enough for that anyway.
