What kind of real "alive"person plays croquet that early--unless they were still up from the night before--and drunk. Which isn't the norm for the neighborhood.

I know it's time for Halloween when pumpkin drinks and butternut squash soup become all the rage at every single coffee shop and restaurant, and when falling leaves start getting messy and annoying!Julie Daohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13814052162359300933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3293818069256266954.post-77977038898367536602012-10-26T05:52:39.161-07:002012-10-26T05:52:39.161-07:00I like Christmas.

For the past month or so, there have been commercials on TV advertising Christmas movies starting in early November. There are even telltale signs of Christmas decorating going up in some of the stores and Halloween hasn't even passed yet. <br /><br />OOPS! Sorry! You asked for signs that it is almost Halloween. I'd have to say that one thing is all the leaves sitting in people's yards. Not too many people rake them up before Halloween. Those that do rake their leaves, put them in those orange pumpkin decorated plastic bags. Another thing is the decorating that is done up at our clubhouse. Wooden pumpkins and wooden tombstones. I think maybe a ghost or two.<br /> Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
