🗺️ Thursday Evening | The Weekend Compass
October 23–25, 2026
A Little Fall Fun Around the Treasure Coast
The weekend is coming, and apparently the Treasure Coast has decided we’re going to celebrate fall whether Florida intends to cooperate with the temperature or not.
Pumpkins.
Farm markets.
Costumes.
Car shows.
Live music.
And the possibility of sweating through your fall outfit before you’ve finished your first pumpkin-flavored beverage.
Welcome to October in Florida.
😂
But goodness, there are some fun things happening this weekend!
So gather the family, grab your favorite wandering partner, or take yourself on a little adventure.

🧭 Compass Note
You don’t have to do everything.
Pick one thing that sounds fun.
Take somebody you love.
Support somebody local.
Talk to a farmer.
Meet a maker.
Listen to some music.
And if you happen to come home with a pumpkin, a handmade treasure, or a good story, I’d say the weekend was a success.
Notice More. Love Well. Gather Often.
