Any ideas you would like to add to the list?
YES!!
Love the list!! Some of these we already do, but you sure gave me LOTS more to plan for 🙂
Happy Fall!
And this year has been especially nice in Northern Ohio!
That’s a great list! How about a hayride – preferably a horse-drawn one? (Every autumn, I say I’d like to go on one!) Decorating the front porch with a bright display of pumpkins, gourds, and chrysanthemums… And for those who are feeling adventurous: Ziplining from one colorful treetop to the next! (Oh, that suggestion about preparing a nice pot of stew makes me want to look for good recipes!)
Thanks so much for the great ideas!
So glad you’re joining us, Jennie!
