As the brutal, shimmering, stultifying heat of summer gives way to the gloried, clear, invigorating coolness of fall, Metro Pulse ventures back outside to give readers some ideas, new and old, on how best to enjoy the great outdoors in this most colorful of East Tennessee seasons.
 And in so doing we lay aside the wishes of the lamented former executive editor, Coury Turczyn, whose predilections and prose were consistent in the concept that all worthwhile and/or pleasurable activity is conducted indoors.
 So take a gander here, then get outside and have an autumn to remember. That means you too, Coury.
