I’ve been collecting photos of Halloween displays since the very beginning of October when they started popping up on my walks in the neighbourhood;-)…
here are some that I enjoyed🎃…
decorating for Halloween has certainly become a popular pastime…
the very tall skeletons were cool, but I kind of like the happy displays, more than the scary ones, lol…
the majority of these were taken before the snow landed (and hasn’t left) which has since curtailed my walks;-)…

because it was another gorgeous day, our Monday gathering took place on the deck for one last time…
I moved the furniture, swept all the leaves off, cleaned the glass table, and put cushion covers on the chairs…
as I was sweeping the lower deck, it occurred to me that I could have used the leaf blower, lol… oh well, good exercise, lol…
and, we were treated to a freshly baked Bundt cake;-)… yum…
the sun shone and it did cool off a little, but we were very comfortable… what a treat in the middle of October…

full day… my grandson came over and worked in the yard for me… then we ran out and did a few errands…
as we left the driveway, got this shot of the Virginia creeper growing alongside the house…
the red is vibrant against the green on the cedar…
returned home and my daughter and the two younger boys arrived and we headed out for more shopping… this time to IKEA… it always amazes me how much time can get eaten up in that store, lol…
had a roast planned for dinner but as we left the store there wasn’t going to be time to cook and eat it before they needed to head home…
so, we ordered Panago pizza… it was delicious along with the salad we made to to go with it…
here’s the newest Chihuly page from my calendar…
omg… October already… how did that happen…
