Here’s your monthly event guide for September!
To me there is nothing better than fall in this city. Well, maybe Summer.. But I really like to make the most of fall because we all know it’s just a precursor to 7-8 months of frozen hell. So as busy and crazy as September can be with school and work, I think it’s super important to spend these last few weeks enjoying the reminisce of summer, and embracing the sweater weather. So what’s going on this month that will help you make the most of September? Let me fill you in:
