Fall = To Do and Family Fun

I love fall!
( and fall on the prairies is not so bad)

Fall is by far my favourite season!
Sweaters with sunshine and hot drinks with crisp air. Enough said.
However, in my neck of the woods the fall colours, falling leaves, mild temperatures and crisp afternoons quickly get replaced with winter colours, falling snow, cold temperatures and crispness all day long.  This is slightly unfortunate for a fall lover like me. Yesterday, maybe because of my true love for the season or my greater passion for to-do lists, an on-line newsletter (which somedays feels like it is delivered to my inbox 5 times) suggested activities that I found interesting, inspiring and within the range of possibility.
