No pumpkins or witches from me today, but the glorious colour of these autumn leaves was more beautiful than any Halloween jack-o-lantern! My photo didn't capture the glow, but I still liked the colour and the reflection of the trees growing on the small island in the smaller pond at Carburn Park. I'll add a couple of photos taken by my son a few years ago (2005), from Halloween in their front yard, just to wish those of you who celebrate Halloween, a happy, safe time. I've only seen two houses with any sign of Halloween decorations this year. Maybe people's minds are focused more on SuperStorm Sandy. Also, fewer and fewer children go from house to house hoping for candy, anyway, as there are now special Halloween events held in shopping malls, Community Centres and the like.
