OUT AND ABOUT – OCTOBER 2021

Scarecrows, scarecrows, everywhere! (At least in Fallbrook!) Between Halloween, Oktoberfest, many other fall festivals and the fall/holiday arts and crafts events, there is quite a lot scheduled. There are even Pub Crawls, in costume too! I did a musical Pub Crawl in Dublin once, what a blast!

This link will take you to the pub crawl, and it also has a very long list of pumpkin, Halloween and Oktoberfest listings all over the county. Way too many to list so go here for more info:
