Fall is finally here!  With the cooler temperatures and the leaves starting to change, its time to pick your pumpkin, get lost in a maze, or take a wagon ride at one of the local area Pumpkin Patches.  Many of the farms offer seasonal treats as well including apple cider, fresh donuts, and more and all of the farms have great photo opportunities for family pictures.  Make sure to take the time to enjoy the season and relax a bit before the holidays arrive.
