The beach chairs might be getting packed away, but there’s still plenty of time to sit outside. Fall brings quieter shorelines, cooler rounds of golf, and afternoons when a sweatshirt feels just right.
At Après All Ways, we love this stretch between seasons. There’s no need to rush straight from summer into ski season. There’s plenty to enjoy along the way.
Take the Scenic Route
A familiar place can feel completely different in the fall. The beach you visited all summer is suddenly quiet. The walk you usually hurry through has a few trees worth stopping under. A late afternoon round comes with cooler air and long shadows across the fairway.
Make a little room for those changes. Walk down to the water after work. Bring your camera on a weekend outing. Leave enough time after your round to sit with the people you played with.
Sometimes a small change in routine is all it takes to make an ordinary day feel like time well spent.
Keep a Layer Within Reach
Fall days have a way of changing while you’re out enjoying them. A sunny afternoon can turn into a chilly evening before you’re ready to head home.
This is the season for the sweatshirt you leave by the door, the soft tee underneath, and the hat that comes along wherever you go. Comfortable pieces make it easier to say yes to another walk, another hour outside, or an impromptu stop with friends.
Our approach to getting dressed stays simple: choose what feels good and suits the day you have planned—with a little room for whatever happens next.
Leave Time for the Après
It’s easy to plan the activity and forget to leave time afterward.
But the conversation on the clubhouse patio, the coffee after a coastal walk, or the extra hour at a friend’s house can become the part of the day you remember most.
When you can, leave your schedule a little open. Find a place to sit. Put your phone away for a while. Ask how everyone’s week has been, and give yourself time to hear the answer.
Après can happen close to home, with people you already know, after something as simple as an afternoon outside.
Carry a Little Summer Forward
A love of the coast doesn’t disappear when the temperature drops. Neither does the pleasure of gathering outdoors or spending a day with no particular agenda.
Keep the parts of summer that work all year: the relaxed plans, the time with friends, the willingness to stay a little longer. Add a warmer layer and a change of scenery.
The season is changing. There’s still plenty to look forward to.
