Love that extra hour when we "fall back". But just so we don't get cocky, mo' natural is gonna throw half a foot of snow at us today.
That preceding blurb was all preface for this ... remember that episode of Happy Days where Fonzie and Pinky break-up? The line I can't get outta my head this morning is "She treated me like an em-plo-YEE."

Shotgun
After Calloway park - I don't think the travelling grocery store parking lot Fair really cuts it anymore. (I know I said this was at the zoo, but I recognized the carney's "responsible" for the rides from their stop at the local Safeway.)
Maybe the thinking is, this is more exhilerating when you throw in the threat of frostbite.

To answer your question ...
With the boy, it's all about the trains. So if he had his choice, he'd probably opt to go as Thomas or Sir Topham Hat.

When I was just ...
... a little boy, I asked my mother, why can't I be what I want to be for Halloween?
So, should it be this ...
So, should it be this ...
... or this.
Or does it not matter because we're going to make him wear a parka and moon boots so no one will see any parts of the costume anyways?

Like the guests who won't leave ...
I don't know what they spray in these balloons - for what they charge I'm assuming it's some class of balloon-grade plutonium - but these suckers are like a bad smell.
In hindsight, we should have gotten christmas colours.

Fall supper
Happy Turkey day ... or vegetarian facsimilie if that's your "taste".
A crisp weekend, but nice enough to get out a few times. Everyone's in the same boat - looking back thinking of the nice summer and how little they took advantage.
But it's look fwd time ... the girl's trying new things: karate and soccer and sticking with the swimming that she's been doing pretty well at since the start of the summer.
The boy is in gymkids but is having some problems grasping the concept of group activities. On the other hand, he's learned to sulk at a very advanced level - the co-ordinated triple threat: grossly exaggerated arm-crossing; a decisive "hmmphh"; followed by stomping to some corner of the room. Too bad the comic effect overshadows any of the intentioned reactions.
Brrrr ....
