October’s Perfect Day(s)
October 1, 2019We’ve gone through quite a few seasons this year with our Perfect Days. And it’s time for another one!
It’s October and that means fall is in full swing – and so is another Perfect Day.
My perfect day in October is any Saturday (or week day that I have off).
It’s only now the beginning of fall, but I’m aware that it’s getting colder with each passing day.
Savvy Consignment has the sweaters I’ll need. And Britain & Brooks has the scarves (and mittens!) I’ll need.
With warm clothes to counter the crisp mountain air, I’ll head out to Valley Falls State Park for the now glorious trees filled with oranges, yellows, reds and browns.
The beginning of fall sadly signals the end of summer. I’ll make one last mad dash for ice cream! Why not combine the best of both worlds with a pumpkiny spicey ice creamy treat. And we have some options for just that…
There’s old fashioned pumpkin pecan pie ice cream at Pufferbelly’s Ice Cream Station.
Get a pumpkin pie avalanche at Dairy Creme Corner – only until Oct. 13!
For something less pumpkiny but just as autumnal, try Dairy Kone’s smores blitz or a butterscotch marshmallow shake.
But maybe a fall pick- me- up is in order? For that, get the hand-dipped cappuccino crunch at Little Dippers.
And that’s how you fall into a Perfect Day in Marion!
