This fellow has been hanging around since Halloween. We missed him when we put away those decorations, so included him in our Christmas display.  Then wouldn’t you know it? We forgot to put him away when we took our Christmas lights down too. Maybe I’ll just give him a flag for Presidents Day.

Candy Purveyors

In Nevada, we celebrate our statehood by closing down for a day and having a big parade down Carson Street in Carson City. Back in the day, candy was just thrown, willy-nilly, from the walkers and float riders. In recent years, parade participants are not allowed to throw the candy, so everyone has to get up-close and personal. Lots of fun!

It’s almost Halloween, and the zombies have arrived!

I went to a costume party last night for the first time in a long time. There were lots of creative costumes, but Zombie Miss America was my fave.

Should I have saved this one for Halloween?
