HAPPY HALLOWEEN......

 
HAPPY HALLOWEEN.......the weather is pretty and I just had a fun dinner with the Hill's family.  It was fun meeting everyone......they are the kind of neighbors everyone needs.  Went to Panniers this morning to see Aaron they had kept him over night and he has changed so much in the two months since the wedding......when I saw him last.  Pam gave me our favorite "apple crutchin".....they were off to tail-gating and the foot ball game tonight.  Don 't know how many trick-or-treaters will around tonight.
I was reading where Halloween is an ancient Druidi Holladay......one the Celtic people have celebrated for millenniums......It is the crack between the last golden rays of summer......and the dark of winter, the delicately tweak, of the year before it is given over entirely......to the dark , a time for the souls of the departed to squint, to peek and perhaps to travel through the gap........what could be more thrilling and worthy of celebration than that?  It is time to celebrate sweet bounty, as the harvest is brought in.....It is a time of excitement and pleasure for children before the dark sets in.  In Mexico it is called the Day of the Dead and everyone goes to the cemetery to visit and eat and enjoy their dead!!!!  I guess in America we just think of our dead on Memorial Day......
TONIGHT WE SET OUR CLOCKS BACK AN HOUR.......which takes a week or two to get use to the new time schedule.
