Halloween Season 2019 - This Week in October

Noticing the trees on my walks with Athena. I believe they are peaking. Many changed during the time we were in Arizona. 

A few trees have lost all their leaves but most are holding on.

Although the colored leaves look gorgeous against a clear blue sky I find them to be equally striking against skies of grey.

Dale and I are both having particularly tough times with our jobs right now. Left-over chili and then pumpkin pie were particularly comforting on this chilly fall day.

More walks with Athena with the added bonus of enjoying colored leaves.

This evening Dale and I went over to Julie and Regina's for dinner and a movie. Julie made pot pie and we brought salad. The movie Julie picked was The Mangler.

Stupid, stupid, stupid movie. That said, it was the kind of bad movie that was incredibly fun to watch. The story was based on a short story by Stephen King about a laundry folding machine with homicidal tendencies. Seriously? Seriously. It starred Robert Englund of Freddy Krueger fame and a bunch of other people I've never heard of. 

Changed my Facebook profile pic to the above picture which I thought was rather cool.

Turned on the tv at one point today and found What Ever Happened to Baby James on Turner Classic Movies. I tuned in right at the point where Jane delivers Blanche a dead rat for her dinner. 

Dale and I picked up a piece of roulade at Kowalski's today. The cream was dyed orange for Halloween.
