Fall is a special time of year. Many trees are bursting with bright colored leaves. Apples of all types are waiting to be picked, eaten, and pressed into cider. Days can be warm like summer, but the evenings are cool. It’s time for hayrides and wiener roasts. Some farmers turn their cornfields into complicated mazes for all to enjoy. After a long summer of missing friends, everyone is back in school. Friday nights mean football games, and Saturdays are for soccer games. It becomes a time of pumpkin carving and planning your Halloween costume. You will read all about many of these things in this issue.

If it’s warm out, go find a place outside to read and enjoy a glass of apple cider. On a cold, rainy day, a cup of hot chocolate and a comfortable chair will be a great place to read Fall Fun. Happy reading and Happy Fall!
