Five randoms for the first day of November:
1.) When I was a teenager, I somehow became interested in post-season baseball. I watched every playoff game and every World Series game. It’s been many, many years since I’ve watched a game, but Motor Man and I came on board beginning with game 4 of the World Series this year. We were hooked, and watched the remaining games in their entirety. We rooted for the Nationals for two reasons: one, they’re the closer to us team. And also in memory of a friend who passed away recently who was a huge Nats fan.

2.) I do like getting dressed up for Halloween, something I never really did as a child. Motor Man and I got in the spirit just to go to dinner last night. I was a stray kitty, and he was the animal control officer. (The belt was around my arm…. to “take me in” to the pound.) “We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.”
3.) This weekend, our little town hosts a Holiday Open House with several shops participating. The forecast is for perfect fall-like weather. Pictured below is one of the rooms at Wharf Hill Antiques, always a beautiful shop.

4. Our weekend might also include a day trip and perhaps a little balloon chasing. Conditions should be favorable.
5.) This is a recent picture Marshall sent of his kitty, Sibyl. She can’t wait for him to get home in the afternoon. That’s the sign of a happy kitty.
How will you spend the weekend? Any fall foliage in your area?
