We are visiting our friend, Wayne, for the weekend. One of our favorite hiking spots in the Manassas area is Sky Meadows State Park. It is a shorter drive than most other hikes and for a day like yesterday when we didn't have a lot of time, it's an ideal choice.
There were some fall colors, but just the beginnings. The morning was sunny and warm but by lunchtime dark clouds had gathered and it started to sprinkle. The possibility of a storm urged us to move quickly back down from the ridge. By the time we got back to the Visitor Center, though, it had cleared off.
Because it was Farm Festival weekend there was a lot of activity around the Visitor Center. We sat on some straw bales to listen to several songs by a group playing on the porch. It was a good way to wrap up a thoroughly enjoyable day in the outdoors.
