First weekend in October, and by golly I needed this-
I was sent a link to a park on the Northern side of Etna to check out- In late October/Early November the mountain explodes in Autumn colors, completely dressed to impress… So we thought we would get a jump and check out this spot!

This was one of those days I just needed- When the walls were starting to close in on the back end of Covid- The island around us finally opening up to Orange and Yellow Zones so we could get OUT!
