Dirt Road Adventures: Welcome Fall!

Happy Sunday, and welcome to Dirt Road Adventures! This is where we review all the exciting events behind the scenes, on the website, and the sources of inspiration I discovered online during the past week. This weekly recap ensures you don’t miss any of our adventures here at the end of our Dirt Road.

Rachel, Lisa & Barb in Southport, NC

Hey friends, finally it’s Fall!! We got a break from the heat as a nor’easter brought high winds and a little rain to North Carolina. We are at the beach, and this weekend the winds have calmed, and the sun is shining. However, the cool temperatures remain. Perfect beach weather, in my opinion. Praying for those coastal towns north of us that are being hit now.

We took the Fort Fisher Ferry to Southport, NC, and met with our friends from N. Myrtle Beach for lunch. It was so good to catch up with these lifetime friends and do some thrift store shopping.

I also updated My Healing Journal with some health challenge updates.

I hope to add a few more new ideas before holiday decorating is in full swing, and I hope you liked the ideas I shared last week. But if you missed them, here’s the recap.
