We thought that we had lost or discarded these two smirking, show-off Halloween decorations that we had had since the last millennium, and were quite distraught. However, we eventually found them hiding in the garage in a box labeled “Halloween Decorations.” Who would ever have guessed? #halloween #decorations #lostandfound

Gordie and How
We bought these two grinning gourdes to replace older, beloved Halloween decorations that we thought we had lost or discarded (much to our relief we found them later–YAY!). These new ones were so cute that we just had to keep them; they make a great addition to our collection. I christened the one on theContinue reading “Gordie and How”
October Orange
A slow-moving cold front lingered to the north and clouded the skies for days on end. During our walk, the clouds parted just long enough to let the rising sun paint their undersides orange and glorify their otherwise gloomy appearance for a few brief moments. More rain was on its way. #october #coldfront #orange #halloween
Thirteen Lucky Days
We just got back from Costco with, among other things, four bags of candy. Yes, we do get that many trick-or-treaters, and we have a great time at the end of our driveway passing the goodies to the little hobgoblins. Thirteen more days to go. Great fun, good times, lucky us! #halloween #costco #hobgoblins #trickortreatContinue reading “Thirteen Lucky Days”
Eyes on Halloween
It’s October, time for cooler weather, turning leaves, baseball playoffs, and Halloween! It’s time to keep the eyes wide open to view all the coming delights. These two pumpkins certainly will. #october #coolweather #baseball #halloween #pumpkins
Facing the Reflections
I was surprised to look out my back window to see the two grinning faces inside the house (left image) being reflected in the glass (right image). I was looking at them while they looked at me as well as each other. Strange, magical, fun. #reflections #gourd #jackolantern #halloween
Tis the Season
We couldn’t wait any longer; the holiday season has begun. For me Halloween season is a magical time and a fun kind of scary that I have enjoyed since childhood. Bring it on! #halloween #witches #holidays
Oak Limbs
These trees appear to reach out with their arm-like branches ready to embrace, or perhaps frighten passers by. Most days they seem more friendly than sinister, but when the giant skeleton appears among them around Halloween, they can be downright scary. #oaktree #limbs #branches #halloween #scary
The Calm Before
The Harvest Moon and the Hunter’s Moon have passed and Halloween is a memory accented by discarded candy wrappers. Thanksgiving is just around the corner and soon the full holiday rush will be on. But for now it’s calm; enjoy the peace and quiet of the moment. #holidayrush #harvestmoon #huntersmoon #halloween #holidayseason
Witches Night Out
One of these little witches seems a little over eager for the trick-or-treating to begin. Sorry ladies, you’ll just have to wait until this evening! PS–My childhood memories of Halloween may be visited at: https://eskildoodle.com/halloween/ #witch #halloween #trickortreating
