With Halloween just around the corner. One of our regular family events is a visit to Marble Falls, about 45 minutes west on Rte 71 from Lakeway to Sweet Berry Farms. There were so many things to do for the children besides picking the largest pumpkin with a good stalk for handling. They had a petting zoo, corn maze, hay rides, face painting, stuff a scare crow, wash your squash, etc. They were selling homemade jams, ice cream and many more.
It seems a bit odd to be pumpkin picking on a beautiful sunny day. There was a cool breeze to gently remind everyone that it is fall! Hence, another reason why it is so great to be here in Austin for autumn!
