fall

If you love the lake life, but don't want to spend an arm and a leg on the pastime, a Missouri place was just named the most affordable lakeside town in America.

The leaf colors in Missouri and Illinois aren't as brilliant as normal this year.

It's almost that time of year when the leaf colors in Missouri will start to get good.

With temperatures starting to cool it’s time to peek ahead at some tasty fall mixed drinks to make the season more flavorful. Who knows, you may find a new autumn favorite.

If you ask me now, I'd say that Fall is my favorite season. If you ask me in late winter, I'd probably say Spring. I do love when the Fall colors begin to get good in Missouri and I've found some helpful maps to figure out when that will be.

It's hard to believe that we're only about a month away from the beginning of leaves changing color as Fall gets closer. There are maps and dates that will give you an idea when it will begin and peak in each different part of Illinois.

I normally accept whatever the weather is without complaining too much, but in this case I really hope Farmer's Almanac prediction for what Fall will be like in Missouri is wrong. Otherwise, we'll all need to stock up on water for multiple reasons.
