Second week of October in this area always means: sailboats, orchids, cider, and pumpkin patches. (among other things).
Ada finding the National Arboretum's koi pond.
Ada's selection.
A beautiful show winner in the Fuukiran category this year, a Kinroukaku with leaves so yellow they look autumnal. The plantings were perfect.
And Ada had a chance to hang out at her cousins house, try out a few new toys and all.
