It's that month of the year again. My favorite time, and probably several others as well.
Keene is having the annual Pumpkin Festival where they have all sorts of attractions and of course Pumpkin carving.
Who else in New England is having festivities? What's your favorite thing(s) to do this time of the year?
The cool breeze moves in.. leaves falling, the signs of autumn everywhere. Children playing in the piles of leaves raked up by their fathers, the smell of a good pot roast coming from moms oven.....

Halloween is upon us!
Ok that just depressed me. Haha. I cant wait till my family and I are out there to experience the fall first hand. I make the most incredible Pumkin Pound Cake, and Pumkpin Squares ever!! lol. I only make them at Halloween time, my family and friends really look forward to them. Oh and I will be the one playing in the leaves, I am such a big kid at heart. As long as I dont get a tick on me. That whole thing has me freaked out. I want to feel the crisp air blowing on my face and hearing the rain hitting my roof. One of my dreams is to be able to cook Thanksgiving Dinner on a cold, rainy day and have the house smell of all the wonderful things I make. Not have the airconditoner on and getting hot flashes cuz it is too darn hot.
Out here, everyone it seems tries to up their neighbor with the Halloween decorations, they look great, but it is still sad. Even Halloween is a competion. The need to compete is crazy. You should see Christmas time..they are even crazier then. I hope Keene isnt like that.

TexasRR, and Everyone else! PLEASE, be aware of your children playing in the leaves. Tragic story of two children playing in the leaves (very close to home) when one of them was hiding in the pile and their Father came home driving in the driveway/partialy ontop of the leaves not knowing His child was in there. I wouldn't want to live with that for the rest of my life.
Just something to be aware of at this time of year.
Its our first Halloween here-I don't see us having any trick or treaters though Our house is way out on a dirt road, and I only know of 5 houses on this whole stree that's almost a mile long.
We're decked out though complete with graveyard and lights. I'll have to post a picture. We want to go to pumpkin festivals and have watched the papers, but haven't seen much in our area that we were interested in going to. Plus we've just been too busy. Next weekend will be great though, its our 5 year anniversary. I want to have some fun.
Anyone near the Lakes region know of anything going on? Hay rides? anything?
TexasRR that's a horrible accident, Holy Cow. I never would have imagined something like that happening. We never did our piles close to the road or driveways though. My 3 brothers had to jump off the low awning roofs and trampolines and stuff, to get hurt that way.
Hello from over the Lebanon border in VT!
We've decorated our porch for Halloween and today I saw a whole bunch of people driving by with 'corn stalks.' Is that a big thing here...decorating with corn stalks?

Nope, that was Sambo who posted that comment....
We never piled our leaves near the driveway either. Usually in the center of the yard someplace.
