WELCOME LETTER<br />
Life starts all over<br />
again when it gets<br />
crisp in the fall.<br />
— F. Scott Fitzgerald<br />
Fall is by far my favorite time of the year. It is the season for all of our<br />
senses. We see a colorful palette of reds, oranges, yellows and browns<br />
all around us. The taste of pumpkin spice finds its way into our coffees,<br />
breads, cookies—even beers. We hear the sound of leaves crunching<br />
under our feet, and we smell wood burning in nearby fire pits as we<br />
wrap up in our favorite soft blanket.<br />
It’s the season when we squeeze all the outdoor time we can into our<br />
days. We go to football games, and we invite family and friends over<br />
for an evening under the stars. So, with company in mind, this issue<br />
shows a way to make your home more inviting by creating a welcoming<br />
pathway leading to the front of your home on page 44.<br />
And if it’s time for a more stylish focal point in your back yard, turn<br />
to page 56 for new fire pit ideas. Plus, get inspired with home decor<br />
items celebrating the colors of fall on page 14.<br />
There’s a lot of activity in the fall for home and garden enthusiasts. If<br />
you are up for a tour you should check out our event listings on page 70.<br />
As for me this fall, I’ll be spending as many evenings and weekends as<br />
possible making s’mores and memories with my grandchildren.<br />
Thanks for reading.<br />
