There are two things we must do on our trip to Blue Ridge. The first is ride the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway and the other is visit Mercer Orchards and get apples to make homemade apple pie.
The boys LOVE to take the train into McCaysville Georgia. It is a beautiful ride along the Taccoa River. We grab some lunch and fudge then back on the train to head back to Blue Ridge.
There is a wonderful little orchard in Blue Ridge called Mercer Orchards. On the weekends in October you can pick your own apples. They also have a huge market to buy apples and other yummy treats. We picked a few of the boys favorites and made an apple pie topped with vanilla ice cream.
These have become family traditions for us that I hope will continue on for years to come!
