Happy Halloween . . .
I stayed up real late reading last night (this morning, actually) so I didn’t get up until almost 11. It went down to 27 here last night so sleeping late in a warm bed was definitely not a problem.
Lowell sent over some more pictures of Landon trick or treating at their church. He didn’t quite know what to make of the giant banana.

The reason the doorways looked like this is that they’re fake, set up in a wall so the little tykes can go trick or treating without all the walking.

Even with that, ‘some’ trick or treaters pooped out early.

We tried Skyping a little after 3 with only some success. We lost the connection several times, and even when it worked we didn’t have very good bandwidth so we only got a few good snapshots.

One unexpected treat was when our son Chris,

his wife, Linda,

and our beautiful granddaughter, Piper, showed up.

So we got to talk to the whole family. We’re really looking forward to seeing everyone in about 3 weeks when we get back to Houston.
About 4 Jan and I put Mister out on his lease and walked the garbage over to the dumpster. We tried to sit out for a while, but with the sun getting low it got to be too cold, so we came in for the night.
Nick called about 6 pm and said they were parked in the Savannah, GA area, and were in their SUV heading to town to have dinner at Golden Corral.
I learned later from a post Nick made on Facebook that they were staying at the same Passport America park we stayed at in June 2009 on our way up the east coast and out to Newfoundland.

Thought for the Day:
“A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is the sum of good government, and this is necessary to close the circle of our felicity.” – Thomas Jefferson
