Waiting For The Goblins

Halloween night approaches as does a bit of rain in a blustery cold front.  I'll try to not eat all the candy before the kiddies arrive.

Went to Portland for some more pumpkin hunting and the last Timbers game.  Grandma took Nina to the top of the pyramid.  Nina was hesitant at first but it soon became her favorite place.

This pumpkin cannon is just north of us; haven't seen it in action but would like to.
Looks like a few bucks went into it; that bore looks to be about 16".  I'll try to get closer sometime for more info.

We are home for a few weeks so we'll be getting ready to hit the road again in December.  It will be Christmas in Denver then January in Florida and February on the road back to Redmond.

Cooling off here but some of the trees still haven't got the memo, so I'm holding off on the leaf raking.  No sense rushing it.  Hope my neighbors understand.

Stay warm.
