Happy Halloween!

 

Yes, I carved a Jack-o-lantern again this year. And, yes, it's another happy pumpkin. We need happy. It's mostly straight lines because it was hard for my old hands to carve it. 

I saved some of the seeds and roasted them.

It was dark and drippy outside on this day before Halloween so I didn't need to wait until dark to appreciate the candle glow. 

The maple trees are putting on their glow outside now, a little later than usual. I took a few photos this morning before the rain started. 

These will intensify to a bright red before they fall. 

The Fern Leaf Full Moon Maple outside our front window is even making the inside glow.

Our Christmas - Thanksgiving - Halloween cacti are starting to bloom.

Halloween Day is supposed to be dry. We will be out planting our tulip bulbs.

We won't have any trick-or-treaters but it's good that any kids who are out won't get rained on. 

Happy Halloween!
