Fall Foliage and Holiday Shopping In Lanesboro, MN

I can’t believe we are over half way through the month of October.   A few more weeks and the doors will be closed on beauty of this season, and we will usher in the next season and its beauty.  I think I used the word “beauty” generously when it comes to the upcoming season.  I have a tendency to enjoy the changing of the seasons; however, winter doesn’t provide much enjoyment for me personally.

At this writing, we are experiencing a cool October week.  The morning temperature was 22 degrees.  The morning air provided a cool bicycle ride for our guests at Stone Mill.  With the temperatures being cooler, visitors to Lanesboro are looking for alternate activities in and around Lanesboro.

An Amish tour from Bluffscape Amish Tours is a wonderful activity for those cooler days.  On this tour you will not only learn about the Amish community, but also have the opportunity to visit their farms and tour their shops.  In the Amish community, you will find beautiful furniture, gorgeous baskets, and awesome chocolate covered cashew crunch.

If you stay in Lanesboro for the day, why not get started on your holiday shopping?  The shops in Lanesboro provide for a unique shopping experience where you can find the perfect gifts for your friends and all of those on your list.  The picture above is only a sampling of the gifts that can be found in the Art & Craft Gallery at Stone Mill Hotel & Suites.

Continued good wishes to everyone for a wonderful fall.  Next week, at this time, we will be getting our costumes ready for Halloween!

Until next time . . .
