Working in my backyard this past weekend I noticed that my giant tree is starting to change color. Fall is on the way. So that got me thinking about the places to go to get those perfect fall photos, or even take in a perfect fall day

Hot Spots in Missouri for Fall Foliage

The Missouri Botanical Garden in St. Louis could be that hot spot. I've never been during the fall, but I bet it's one of the most beautiful places to visit during this time of year. the botanical garden is known for having several displays of fall foliage throughout the grounds. Plus, you can take in the Fest-of-Ale event later this month.
