Fall Festivities Coming Up in the Triangle

 

Fall

Fall is here and is now in full swing. Pumpkin patches have opened up, mums are lined up outside stores and sunset is earlier. These are all sure signs of the departure of summer and the arrival of fall. Fall is a great time of year to really get outdoors and enjoy cooler temperatures and the surrounding outside beauty with the leaves changing colors and falling to the ground. The Triangle has some great events lined up that you don’t want to miss. There is no shortage of events to choose from.
