What October feels like
The river path is the reason a lot of people live here and October is when it earns that. The Foothills are perfect and nearly empty; take a headlamp, because the sun goes down earlier than your legs expect it to.
Real rain shows up about 2 days all month; the rest stay dry. The air runs dry — whatever the thermometer says, it wears easy.
