It's the thought that counts

 Wheeeee, how the last few months have zoomed by! Now it's November — roughly seven weeks from the solstice and the winter holidays. Hold on tight!

But first there is the business of Hallowe'en. In a fit of anxiety, I bought extra extra candy, meaning we had a lot of candy leftover. Oops.

Our final tally was 269 trick-or-treaters. Down from last year, but still pretty impressive. Other people have told me they had fewer than 20 kids at their doors. Sigh.

Anyway. Here are our jack-o-lanterns. Cheers!
