Spring or Fall and Halloween

It’s odd to see azaleas and iris in bloom in late October! It’s even more odd that most of the trees are still very green. We just planted some clover seeds in our patio garden and little clover are starting to pop up with the help of a sunny south exposure. So when we walked through the neighborhood this morning we were looking for signs and colors of the fall season. There was a lot more squirrel activity to be sure. They were all scurrying and rustling about everywhere, stuffing their faces. 


The Halloween decorations are about to be celebrated even more tomorrow, and there are a lot of spider webs and skeletons. The skeleton tea party seemed like fun. The headless person in front of one house and another getting hunted down by rats were impressive. But sometimes the simple decor is the best - a few mums, pumpkins, scarecrows and gourds. Every once in a while a show of color became dramatic with leaves blowing in front of the bright sun shine. We stopped for breakfast at Ted’s Bulletin and then ventured back home. Having had some sort of virus these past several days makes being outside all that more appealing. I don’t think it matters what season it is.
