Good Afternoon,
My favorite color is October.
I don't know who first said that, but it is hard to disagree. Soon, we will revel in the decadent colors of orange and yellow as we draw in the crisp autumn air.
Let's stay safe and healthy while we embrace this season together and immerse ourselves in the splendor that our beloved St. Louis has to offer.
All the best. -Nate
