The time has come to overdose on pumpkin spice lattes, stock up on cardigans, and collect firewood for the impending (er, fingers-crossed-not-happening) winter snowstorm. Some things are pretty standard fall fare. But, as you know, there are so many other things to see and do in D.C. during the season; so many—quite frankly—that it can be overwhelming to choose which are worth the stock. To help guide you through the myriad of corn mazes and haunted houses, we asked Red Tricycle’s awesome editorial team to tell us their favorite ways to have fun this fall.

"Saturdays during the fall mean one thing in our family: college football. One of our fall traditions is cheering on our Clemson Tigers (my team) and Texas A&M Aggies (hubby's team). We tailgate any time Clemson comes to the college town we call home and we always have plenty of football season munchies—pigs-in-a-blanket, barbecue, chocolate chip cookies—on hand for game weekends. Each year, we've snapped a picture of my daughter and I hanging up the Clemson flag for the season. Go, Tigers!"
