An early snow in Oct. has us thinking about Winter already! The snow is gone but the temperatures tell us that Winter is not far behind. The perfect time to relax in front of the woodstove or put on your gloves and go for a nice walk with the swish of the colorful leaves underfoot. I’m just starting to get knowledge of some of the scheduled activities in the area for November and December. Keep checking back for additions and updates:
