The morning air is already a bit brisk, the first leaves of eager trees are beginning to turn, and the pumpkins are ripening for the harvest. Yes, it’s still summer, but only for a few more weeks! One of the beauties of fall is the anticipation, the gradual transformation of the landscape, and the chance to savor every stage of the season. While it’s hard to determine the exact dates of the most vibrant fall colors, there’s something special about the wait, the signs of it starting, the joy of experiencing it, and the beautiful rich gold leaves that hang on longer than others. Sometimes, the best part of fall is watching it unfold while you spend the days golfing, fly fishing, hiking, mountain biking, experiencing falconry, or simply enjoying the fresh air and natural beauty. We invite you to join us this September in Woodstock, Vermont, and discover the joy of anticipating when foliage begins.
