Halfway through September, and I think it’s time to cozy up and toast to the upcoming fall season. I invite you to raise your glass at one of these kid-friendly breweries, whether you’re in the Seattle area or South Sound. And make a plan for a new fall tradition: a ride on a Halloween train. Not yet ready to let go of summer? Head to the playground of the week, a magical waterfront spot. Whether or not you’re ready for fall, you can make the most of the weekend with my top 10 events.
