As the seasons change, you might be busy preparing your home, so it’s clean and cozy before winter arrives. However, autumn’s mild weather is the ideal time to enjoy fun family activities. The team at Nate's Clean and Screen Gutter Service of La Crosse, WI, will take care of your gutter cleaning, so you can spend more time enjoying the outdoors and less time on chores.

What You Can Do This Fall Instead of Gutter Cleaning

1. Go Hiking

Why should you do chores when you can enjoy the wonder of nature? Instead of gutter cleaning, crack sealing, and stocking up on winter supplies, head to your nearest hiking or biking trails to enjoy the fresh air and colorful leaves.

2. Explore a Corn Maze

These outdoor mazes are especially fun for young kids. Get lost among the golden husks with friends and family, then head home for a cup of apple cider. Some sites that host mazes also include hay rides, petting zoos, and other autumnal activities.

3. Pick Apples

Apple picking is another fall tradition that is meant to be shared with loved ones. After a day in the orchards, you can turn your haul into apple pies, apple butter, applesauce, and apple crisps that will keep you cozy all winter long.

4. Brave a Haunted House

For the more adventurous families out there, October is the perfect time to visit a haunted house. If you love horror movies, then why not experience some real-life scares?

5. Watch or Play Football

With football season in full swing, the only thing better than catching the game on TV is getting outside and throwing a ball around with your friends and kids. Get a neighborhood game together and enjoy the cool weather and some healthy competition.
