Go on a leaf tour
For some people, the only good thing about winter coming is the turning of the leaves. While you may not be ready for snow and cold, it’s hard not to appreciate the color show nature puts on right before winter. If you live in a state with four distinct seasons, now’s the time to get out and enjoy the reds, pinks, oranges, yellows and browns that are autumn.

How to Make it Happen
Mother Nature does all the work. All you have to do is go for a walk or a drive. If you go by car, pick the curviest road in your county and don’t rush. Let cars pass you by. Just enjoy the scenery.
Additional Activities
- Create a leaf collection from leaves you found on your walk. Learn what type of trees they come from.
- Fall is the perfect time to plant a tree. Plant one in your yard, or donate one to a city park.
