Carter Mountain

On a beautiful day off when you don't want spend time in a car, stop by Carter Mountain. I love getting the chicken-and-grape-salad sandwich from Brix and stopping by Jefferson Vineyards for a bottle of wine, then up the mountain I go. Find a quiet spot on either balcony or in the orchard itself, (discreetly) pour some wine, and take in the view. Depending on the time of year, there are juicy peaches, a great variety of apples, and in the fall, don't miss the pumpkin patch and apple cider doughnuts.
