Morning rays briefly beamed across an end table casting a captivating light trick upon the treats and bunny. Poor bunny is bound up like a mummy and is just dying to get to some of the candy. The tantalizing question is: Will any candy be left on Halloween for the furry little trick-or-treater? I doubtContinue reading “Trick of the Treat”

Gang’s All Here
Storm has passed, time for some fun. Goblins and ghoulies are appearing here and there with holiday cheer. Now, where are all those bags of candy that are supposed to be for trick-or-treaters? #halloween #goblins #ghoulies
L’araignée est arrivée
L’araignée (French for spider) is back at his bookcase perch to add a delightful degree of creepiness to the Halloween season. Most of the year he waits patiently in his lair in the dental cabinet where I display my collection of rocks and bottles, but now he’s out for a few glorious autumn weeks toContinue reading “L’araignée est arrivée”
Ghouls’ Garden
It’s not that far off; Halloween is about seven weeks away. Already, a Harvest Moon has been seen lurking low in the west; casting its golden glow through the trees before dawn. Next will come the Hunter’s Moon, followed by the spooky eve before All Saints’ Day, also known as All Hallows’ Day. No, I’mContinue reading “Ghouls’ Garden”
Of Garlic Keepers and Pumpkins
Yesterday’s paper proclaimed that Halloween wares were going on display in local store next month, in July.

We’ll just wait and buy candy in bulk at Costco a few weeks before Halloween and set upContinue reading “Of Garlic Keepers and Pumpkins”
Haunted Moon
Several years ago, just before Halloween, I took this photo of the Moon seemingly haunted by the season. It has moved on, as have I, but it’s spectre still lurks in my memoy. #moon #halloween #haunted
Two Happy
This Halloween gourd, with its Jack-o’-lantern faces, joined our family about 20 years ago when we moved to Florida. It added smiles to our faces amid the confusion accompanying the recent move and continues to do so to this day. #jack-0′-lantern #halloween #florida #gourd
A Matter of Perspective
We have had this scarecrow decoration for over 40 years and no, it hasn’t sprouted giant black ears. It just happens to be lined up with the ears of Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, which is is on the opposite side of the counter. What we can see just depends on our point of view. #perspectiveContinue reading “A Matter of Perspective”
Fall for Fun
It’s that time of year again, days are shorter than nights, temperatures and leaves are dropping, and soon little goblins and witches will be looking for candy. Can hardly wait! #autumn #halloween
Warm Turkey
They’re not going “cold turkey,” they just are enjoying the setting sunbeams. Though Halloween is the next on the holiday list, they are biding their time for their own “day in the sun” on Thanksgiving. It will be here soon enough. #turkeys #basket #halloween #thanksgiving
