Happy Halloween


On a day that nature doesn't provide you with fodder for a foto, you can create your own subject. I had a fabulous time on "Halloween Eve" carving 3 large pumpkins I had grown in my garden. You can print patterns from various websites (just google "pumpkin patterns")... all sorts of neat, non-traditional patterns are out there. And be sure to invest a couple dollars (literally) in a kid's pumpkin carving kit - the tools are necessary to cut more intricate designs. It is rewarding - many of my little costumed visitors take a moment to study my creations and then to compliment me on them!
