Rain is falling on a full moon weekend! Spooky times ahead and pernicious pirates make mischief this month~
That has been my "theme" (if you will) for the past few weeks. I like how those words work together, they just sound good when spoken aloud. But more than that, I love the meaning.
October always brings a hint of mystic mindset and wide-eyed eerie watchfulness, particularly so when the moon is full and it's a little hazy outside at dusk. That's how its looks outside my window right now and when the sun fully sets, a full moon will rise and cast a pale glow, throwing shadows in places seen only out of the corner of the eye.
Only four days until our annual Cemetery Stroll and I can hardly wait. My sisters (mainly Shari and I - Mindy has already stated she's "NOT going! It will give me bad dreams!"...'nuff said) and our children stop at the local Starbucks to fuel up for a chilly, spine-tingling evening walking among the dead. Mostly, we just laugh and scare the you-know-what out of each other and take lots of photos. Some of those photos can be viewed on Shari's site. Note: the pic of Shari with her head chopped off and lying on a tombstone that has TAYLOR inscripted across it. These are memories in the making and definitely not something for the faint hearted (or loose bladder). The photos, I will definitely post!
In the meantime...enjoy your eerie autumn weekend. May you stay warm and happy (and a little bit on edge!)
