LARA JO HIGHTOWER NWA Democrat-Gazette I 'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers," says Anne Shirley, happily, in the beloved children's classic "Anne of Green Gables" by L.M. Montgomery. To be sure, there's a lot to love about October: enjoying the cooler temperatures, welcoming autumn, celebrating Halloween — and if you're the kind of person who shares Anne's enthusiasm for the month, you're sure to find a corn maze, hay ride or pumpkin patch in Northwest Arkansas that will help you celebrate.
