The Best Reasons To Visit Carter Mountain This Fall

The Scenic View: Coming up towards the orchard is a little road that takes you straight up the mountain to some of the most breathtaking views of the valley and mountains that Virginia offers. You can comfortably drink hot apple cider and enjoy a warm apple cider donut while relaxing on the back porch with friends and family watching the world melt around you with the amazing landscapes.

Alcohol: Underneath the cozy back porch of Carter Mountain’s gift shop is a Bold Rock Cider brewery. The brewery offers a delicious selection of cider’s made from local apples. The brewery even offers a sneak peek and tasting of seasonal drinks that are not yet released to the public!

Dog and Family friendly: Rest assured you will leave the orchard with baby and puppy fever after having witnessed the many adorable puppies and children frolic happily in-between the rows and rows of magnificent apples trees.


The Perfect Date: The Orchard is wallet friendly to high school and college students and offers a unique and engaging experience with the newly dating. The romantic atmosphere and photogenic scenery is a perfect spot to kick back and have a conversation with a loved one.

Close to Nature: Bring a blanket and pick a spot on the lawn to stretch out and just enjoy the fresh air. The cool breeze off the mountain will welcome you into some flannels and wool socks while watching the sunset. It’s the perfect spot to disconnect from the work week and enjoy some much needed rest and relaxation.

The Apples: And of course the orchard offers many different varieties of apples that all patrons can pick at leisure! The apples can be eagerly picked and priced by weight.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
