Now, before all you summer-lovers jump on my back like, “IT’S NOT FALL YET!” Trust me, I know. I am no lover of fall. Did you know…. after fall comes WINTER? Yeah, you don’t have to convince me that summer is the beast season, I know. So why create a fall bucket list? Simply for the reason that I have to psyche myself up for fall. Now That I have lived in Ohio for roughly 7 falls, I’ve come up with a few favorite things to do here that I can’t necessarily do in California.
Here is the list:
- Apple picking – it’s just not the same in the golden State!
- watching the leaves change color – palm trees have no changing color
- bonfire on a chilly night
- drink seasonal spirits (spiked cider, pumpkin ale, etc.)
- photoshoot at the pumpkin patch with the kids
- put up seasonal decor
- go to a fall festival
- toast pumpkin seeds
- go on a hayride! (so many more local farms here!)
- curl up under blankets and watch a movie with hot cocoa
- make pumpkin bread
- jump on crunchy leaves
- get a fall themed mani/pedi (I like dark red)
- get out your football fan gear! People are more serious about their football out here.
- EAT CANDY
Ok, so that last one every one can do regardless of state or season… but its so much more fun when they come in festive little fun-sized packages!
Hope this helps you look forward to fall, even if you’re a summer-lover like me
