There is the biggest hint of Fall in the air today......the wind is blowing, the skies are cloudy,
the temperature is hovering around 35, and the rain has turned to heavy flakes of snow.
Of course, it isn't sticking to the ground yet; but is big reminder of what is to come!  The
ground is covered with a blanket of fallen leaves ~ a bed for the flakes falling from the sky.

My cyber friend, Susan Branch, posted this little quote in her Williard letter that comes out every so often, and I liked it so much I copied.....I assume it is ok, since I give her all the credit!
She so inspires me....if you are ever having a bad day, just go to her BLOG :(www.susanbranch.com) ....... you can't help yourself but to feel so much better!!

Halloween lurks just around the corner, and I have tried to ready the house for such a festive occassion.  All the collections of ghosts, whitches and such from over the years, have assumed their posts to set the mood.

All the grands and their M&D's come over on Hallows Eve and we feast on pizza burgers and chips; and then they head out to the garage (in all their costuming) to climb onto their mobile carriage to begin their visit from house to house collecting candy treasures!  Grandpa winds his way through the dark shadows of the night, delighting in the giggles and chatter of his precious load!!  The BEST is when they come home, eyes bright with excitement, to look into those bags of goodies and see just exactly what they have amassed.  A warm cuppa Hot Chocolate awaits them to provide some warmth to those cold littles.   Ahhh...

Wonderful memories to ponder and to warm up this dank day ~
