Six Extraordinary Ways to Experience Fall Foliage
|
Timing is everything, especially when it comes to seeing beautiful fall colors in the great state of Ohio. The leaves have already started to change color and will continue through October, with mid to late-October being the peak viewing time. While there are many traditional ways to see the leaves changing colors, we decided to be a little more adventurous and have compiled a list of the most extraordinary ways to experience fall foliage at Ohio's Lake Erie Shores & Islands..

Go back 27 years, October 31
st
, 1990, in Sandusky, Ohio. I was seven years old, my sister and I watched my mom pass out candy to trick-or-treaters in our neighborhood. My dad, dressed as a monster, would sit motionless on a bale of straw, as Elvira (my mom) passed out candy. All he had to do was stand up. The rest was history. He loved Halloween and especially watching trick-or-treaters go into a running sprint because they didn’t expect a good scare!

#TravelTuesday:
Greater Sandusky

Sandusky? Wait a minute…I thought you already visited Sandusky for #TravelTuesday! You are correct – however last time we were only able to focus on the downtown Sandusky region. This week, we're seeing what else Sandusky has to offer when you explore the rest of the 44870 (our local zip code). This is the last of our individual community-focused #TravelTuesday features. Be sure to check out our previous posts to see what we were able to explore in the other towns, cities, villages, and islands that collectively make up Ohio's Lake Erie Shores & Islands.
