The amount of plastic being used for all these decorations in nauseating. Besides that, decorate on!

Annual photo dump from the Terror On Tilson Street.

We talked about going up there next weekend if we had time. We had our annual Halloween tour here in the Shores the past two days--we saw some of them, but have maybe a dozen more to get through.

You carved a mad pumpkin?

 

[Rudy]

Yep, snow on one of the decorations around the time the li'l goblins were supposed to be out trick-or-treating. Thankfully nobody was within earshot as there was much unpleasant language when I saw this. Strangely, too, we only had four kids from the time we opened until 6:45pm! We've usually had a couple dozen by then. We had more later on, but still had candy left. We didn't buy much this year since we weren't going to get into the price gouging. (Our Costco bag was quite a good value, considering what other stores were asking for far less.)

On a better note...my better half with all of her stomach issues has been going gluten free and I finally found a good pizza dough (King Arthur "00" pizza flour, which has gluten-free wheat starch in it). So a 10-ish-inch pie came out thus:



Skim mozzarella and turkey bacon, with other toppings.

It comes out kind of weird when pressing it out, but it bakes up fine. I actually like it just a hair more than the dough I've been making for my own pizza.

Similar view, only a little deeper on the white crust on the cars... 😠

Leaving for the south in a week and a half.

The annual antithesis to flowers.

Sharon the sunflowerjack(ette?) This plant was measured at 123-1/2" in mid-August, and today she counted a grand total of 70 heads on our Hydra!😳

Caught these cool clouds at a stop on the way home the other day.

I passed this yesterday...

A night with a beer on the balcony, even when it's raining, is a nice thing when a Alberta guy goes to Clearwater FL for business in November.

 

[JoeThePop]

Can you tell I cleaned up the leaves yesterday. 😕

 

[Rudy]

No cleaning up of leaves, where I'm at right now.

Went out today to pick up the guest of honor for next week's gathering.
Saw this fine critter enjoying an afternoon repast.

Lawn art in the front yard - a fun homemade anvil my brother found and gave me 20 years ago when I was serious about blacksmithing.
