I find I do less and less "decorating" for holidays and this year did zilch for Halloween other than sweep a million acorns off the drive for the trick or treaters. I do look forward to the first ew because they are usually the smallest kids ,still shy, and cute as can be. Chilly day for it- at least for these parts.

I have out a couple of decorations but this year I bought a full sized skeleton and put it at the table in the front yard! I really like that skeleton! He is a very good listener!

The demographics changed a lot out here on my country road. All the kids are now grown. We used to organize a hay-ride trick or treat for the kids. Now the few out here go into town to trick or treat at special safe sites.

It's a shame weird times change things for the worse.

I was working in the lab late one night... When my eyes beheld an eerie sight... For my Monster from his slab, began to rise... and suddenly and to my surprise...

It's a Catholic holiday. Pards.

It's the one night I don't need to wear a mask.

Last night was both fitting and cool.

I stepped out to pee off the deck, under a full moon and 3 owls hooting at each other.

If any kids come around tonight, I'm taking their candy.
