Fall

Sedalia Parks and Recreation has opened registration for their fall softball leagues.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.— As the heat of summer fades into the cool weather of fall, trees and shrubs around the Show-Me State transform from leaves of green to a fall-foliage color palette of golds, reds, oranges, and purples. The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) encourages people to discover nature through fall-color excursions.

October is in full swing, and Halloween is right around the corner. If you're a movie nerd who's into dressing up for Halloween, picking your costume can be some serious business. But with only a few weeks left before The Big Day, you've got some choices to make. Wanna bro down with your buds and go as the Robert De Niros from 'Neighbors'? Or maybe you're a lady who wants to ditch the animal ears and do something much cooler this year. If you need help figuring it out, we've got a handy guide to Halloween costumes inspired by 2014 movie characters to help you get it together in time for the upcoming holiday, including what to buy and where to buy it.

Just in case you didn't know, boyfriendo and I moved from a small apartment to an older two/maybe three bedroom house earlier this year.

When we think of school these days, we think of the fall and we think of soccer.  The kids in our area definitely love to get out there on the pitch and run around to the delight of their proud parents.  So I thought it was important to let people know that just because it's a fall league doesn't mean that the sign up is in the fall.  It's now!

Leaves are everywhere! It's definitely fall in Sedalia, and like it or not, we should probably start raking those yards and bagging the leaves up. But what do you do with the leaves after they're bagged up? Not to worry, if you leave in the city of Sedalia, the Sanitation Department will come pick them up for you.

As you may know, the Sedalia Parks and Recreation do a lot here for our local kids. They offer all sorts of programs, activities and education opportunities for all sorts of interests. And it's not just for school age kids, either.  It's for the youngest of kids to the most mature adults.

According to the calendar, it is officially fall, and that means the 80 and 90 degree temperatures are behind us. Many people say that summer and fall are their favorite seasons of the year. Fall is a favorite in my household since Diana and I got married in October and our son, Gabriel, was born in the fall.

The weather may be getting a bit colder, but that doesn’t mean you have to hang up your hiking boots for the season. You still have plenty of fall left to head out into the countryside for some extended walks through America’s most stunning parks and nature reserves.

A bus driver became a hero on Monday when he caught a seven-year-old autistic girl in his arms after she fell three stories from a building in New York City. The remarkable rescue was caught on tape.
