Great pumpkin!

For a fun family day trip, check out Burt's pumpkin patch near Dawsonville. They are open through Nov. 15. It's a lot of fun with plenty of pumpkins, autumn decorations and hayrides to enjoy. See the patch online at www.burtsfarm.com . The barn store has great stuff including pumpkin pie, gourds and lots more. Amicalola Falls is down the road. You'll have the best jack-o-lantern on the block.

Fun family place

The staff of The Times-Herald and Newnan-Coweta Magazine recently had our employee picnic at DixieLand Fun Park in Fayetteville. It was an enjoyable afternoon with rides, miniature golf, an arcade and go-karts, enjoyed by kids of all ages! During the fall, the park is open on weekends only. It's clean, the staff was friendly, and there's no smoking at the park. Find out more at http://www.dixielandfunpark.com/

Enjoy the pretty fall weather while you can.
