Don’t get me wrong, Winona is a great place to live all year round (well, except maybe the dead of winter). But here are the top 5 reasons why I love the fall in Winona best:
1) Fall colors on the bluffs
How lucky are we to able to watch the bluffs transform from their green splendor into a skyline of orange, red and yellow watercolors?
2) Apple orchards are a magical, mystical place
Caramel apples, apple turnovers and apple picking…need I say more?
This year I went apple picking at Ferguson’s Apple Orchard with my best friend Alia, my mom and my mom’s best friend. Alia snapped this picture as I was reaching into a tree for more Haralson apples.
3) WSU Homecoming
Homecoming is the one time a year when everyone rallies behind our Warriors and it’s always a blast.
4) Fall-themed coffee drinks at Mugby Junction
I’m not even ashamed to utter these words: pumpkin spiced lattes.
5) Tews Corn Maze
Living in such a small town close to farming areas has its perks. Take an afternoon off and get lost in the corn!
