Join me as a write this new chapter of my life.

Happy Halloween

 Enjoy the monsters, princesses, ghosts, witches, rock stars, cheer leaders, animals and Ninjas that come by your house tonight.

If you don't get any trick or treaters, then think of me as Dan and I welcome over 100 to our house! Our first year here, 2021, I counted 137 +/- and that was during Covid.  I haven't counted since but know I need to be stocked with candy [and toys for those with allergies].  It all starts at 5 and ends by 7 pm. Unlike 2021, we recognize more and more of the kids and their parents.

Enjoy your weekend, too.

p.s. Jack o' lanterns were carved on Friday morning.  The pumpkins were grown by Granddaughters #1 & #2.
