As the summer is coming to an end and school is about to start, thoughts of fall bring to mind the Morton Arboretum. Bring your good walking shoes, as this is a great place to go and see the various fall colors, and to spend a few hours enjoying nature. It's also a great place for a field trip with the kids. And it's also a great place to go to in the springtime, as the trees and plants are starting to bloom, and everything is that lush bright green. Of course, because it's a great place for autumn and spring outings, it's especially popular/crowded on weekends.
