Before we get to the recap of Halloween and other spooky stuff, Burt and Ivy have an important public service message. It's Election Day and we have the opportunity to elect an intelligent woman who is more than capable of being the next President of the United States. If you live in Wisconsin, Tammy Baldwin needs your support too. Thanks for your time, now please vote!
It's been a hot and dry autumn in these parts, although the leaves were really colorful it just hasn't seemed like fall. Where have all those cold, dark and gloomy days gone?
The Crew harvested four pumpkins from the garden but they were a little too small for their standards, so they went shopping for a few extras.
After this spooky season became so hectic, Burt and Ivy decided to start planning for next year right away. They do not want to miss out on being the stars of their daily blog again!
Earlier in the week it was sunny and 80 degrees so naturally around Trick or Treat time it dropped to half that with the wind gusting up to 45 mph. Finally, some appropriate weather!
Following a brief discussion about using duct tape to hold down the plastic jack-'o-lanterns to the porch floor, the conclusion was to just go with the four real ones.
Which was a good choice since large, inflated costumes were very popular.
Especially, the ones with the long tails.
After a couple hours of trying not to be blown away while answering the door and, with only thirteen candy bars left, Burt and Ivy went back to planning for next year's Halloween and trying not to worry about the election.
Just one last reminder.
I hope everyone had a very Happy Halloween!
Thanks for stopping by, see you soon.
