October 5, 2019. Fall is here. Trees letting go of their leaves. But rather than simply letting their leaves fall to the ground, they decided to give a magic show. Perhaps to encourage folks to ignore the cold mornings and short daytime to still find time to be outside. “Bet I can make you go outside if I make my leaves turn from green to yellow to red before they hit the ground. It’s only available for a short period so come out and see this magic show, I call – The Changing Colors of Fall“ “And it’s free!” You … Continue reading Fall Hike – Bear Mountain
