Ghostsies and Goblins and Things that go bump in the night..

It's almost Halloween.

Haunted corn fields, river bottoms, houses and amusement parks, have been popping up for about a month. Providing places where you can pay some big buck's, to get the bageebers scared right outta ya!

Even Nick Jr. is getting in on the ghosties and goblins and things that go bump in the night.

Not wanting to be left out, I thought I'd jump on the band wagon.
I'm no ghost hunter, and have no desire to become such. If they want to find me, it's their choice. But let me tell you, I ain't dumb enough to go lookin for them.

For kicks n giggles and maybe scare myself a little, I tried to google "orbs" to see if they had a "how to" on them. 
Yeah, they didn't have anything that made sense to me. So I will leave it up to your discretion...
Here are three random pictures, from three undisclosed locations...
What do you think?



 May be googled pictures...then again, maybe not Bwwaaa ha ha!
I gotta confess. I'm interested in your thoughts and comments on this.

   Dust?   Rain?   Glare?   Ghosty orbs?

This time of year its just plain to hard to tell.

You Can Do It!

I watched a vine climbing through the fence from the neighbor's yard, however I never took the time to actually go look at it.
The thing was right there.
 I could see it from the window or the patio and think to myself, I would go see what it is next time I'm out in the garden. I would go about my business, forgetting all about it.
Then one day I looked out the window and noticed the vine was turning a beautiful deep red color. It was time to grab my camera and make torturous walk, ten extra steps from our garden, to see what this thing was.


Concord grapes. Smaller than tiny.
How sad.
If only they could have gotten more water, they might have been big enough to do something with.


Being the deep thinker I have become. (A phenomena that has arisen in my life over the past 6 or 7 years-boggling my otherwise carefree brain).
Sad forgotten grape vine. What would I learn from it?

This morning I was near trounced by this, very deep, and somewhat profound thought.
The vine is like ideas and wishes I have periodically entertained in my life.

Huh?! Pretty deep don't you think?

I remember my free thinking, inner child has always been evident in who I am, so it isn't a real big stretch to remember some-such whims and fancies.

It hit me on the head, that lately it's only me, myself and I, really  holding me back from reaching for old dreams and dreaming new ones.

Whhhell now! Time to change that don't you think?

So I bought a digital camera, got loaded up on editing programs, and have been learning to do portraiture and art photography. Someone needs to be the next Cecil Beeton.

I can do that!

Someone needs to write the next book series to edge out Harry Potter  and Edward Cullin!
Join a writing club.
Maybe a Fred Astaire or Ginger Roger's-take a ballroom dancing class.

What I'm saying is this:
