New England blesses the rest of the United States with its scenery during the Fall. More specifically, the state of Connecticut, has held my heart during this time of year ever since I was born. Every Fall warms my heart not only with Pumpkin Spice Lattes, but with the atmosphere in Connecticut. It is able to satisfy every one of the human senses.
There is so much to see in the beautiful terrains of the state. Any hike, walk or bike ride can bless your body with a multitude of colors. The crisp air feels different than it does outside of the state. The way the trees tower over the streets and sidewalks beats the skyscrapers that do the same in the city. The mountainous horizons blend in with the colorful sunsets that accompany them.
You can hear the rides at festivals as well as the occasional "NEXT!" when you are in line to get some apple cider donuts or a loaded baked potato. However, you can at most times hear nothing, which is very calming and pleasing to someone that only knows the sounds of sirens and trains. There is also a bigger variety of delicious foods to smell and taste during this time of year too. All pumpkin everything.
Connecticut offers some of the best fall themed activities and excursions to bring all of your senses together. For example, you can head to The Haunted Graveyard at Lake Compounce Theme Park in Bristol, the Trail of Terror in Wallingford, or on a lighter note, Lyman Orchards' Corn Maze & Pumpkin Picking in Middlefield. There is even Haunted Mini Golf in Farmington. This state seems to be the most celebratory of the season than any other one. I love Connecticut because it brings out the best of Fall. Outside of it, it just does not feel right. It brings a sense of joy and home. What more could you ask for?
