A Walk About

Though Halloween is over. . .I just had to share these photos of the holiday and the fun some people have in celebrating it.   I did enjoy the "gentleman and his dog!"
So the holidays begin.  Yes, this is only the beginning!
Autumn is still glorious here.  The weather has been good, except for rains last week that brought us 5 inches.  All in all it's been grand so I intend to be glad and rejoice!

 This poor "gentleman" apparently had had enough and gave up the ghost, no pun intended.  It is so sad to see a beautiful, old tree like this just lay down.  It's hollow so it was suffering for some time. May he rest in peace.

~~~^j^~~~
Thanks be to God!!

  1. It's always sad to see a big tree go--but it's the way of life's circle.

  3. Oh I hate to see a tree go. Our huge spruce where the eagles perched, was taken in a storm, July of 2019. So sad. Cute skeletons, though! Have a blessed Lord's Day!

  9. Cathy - we live out in the country, so we would have to make an effort to see other people's Halloween decorations ... I miss it. My hubby and I also normally participate in the adult costume contest in a nearby town, but not this year. Maybe 2021. So I am grateful to see your photos! Thanks for linking to Mosaic Monday!

  17. I enjoyed all your captures, especially "gentleman and his dog"! Kinda sad really, I imagine him waiting there with his dog for an eternity for his beloved to come home someday but she never did.

    Happy Tuesday!

  22. The first photo made me laugh. Love the decorations. I'm with you about the tree. I always feel very sad when I see an old tree cut down or ripped out of the ground from a storm.

  28. A tree in our joint neighborhood backyard fell down this fall , (we live in an apartment complex, so not our responsibility) but close enough we heard the noise, almost like the tree was crying I swear! Sad.
