We made a plan to have a Saturday up in Prescott last month to escape the Phoenix heat for some cooler weather. We did not, however, plan for a rain and hail storm on the way!
I have been missing the east coast a lot lately, and that has been manifesting through me missing my home town's fall foliage! I was surrounded by trees for so long, its sad to look out the window and not see any beautiful greens, yellows, and reds.
We skipped our hiking plan due to the weather but we stopped by the Prescott National Forest just to drive through the yellow birches! The windy roads full of bright colors almost made me cry with happiness. Then we headed to Downtown where there was a fall festival. I just love this little community atmosphere so much!
The weather did clear up and we finished up our day at Watson Lake, and once again I was blown away by the scenery. We walked farther down to explore the rock formations, and while I was nervous, A was fearless as always.
