Ghostly Lawn
















It took me a while, but I have finally put out most of the Halloween decorations. This year's additions include ghost lights, ghost stake lights, pumpkin stake lights and ghost metal thing. the wind has taken a toll on our graveyard (my mom won't let me get real headstones) and on the ghosts on the liliac tree. Everything lights up, but night time pictures don't come out as well. I will try to take a few later on.... but it is really cold and windy today. All in all I like to think of it as my very own ode to the West Village in October.

More Salem











Here are some shots from the House of the Seven Gables, the inspiration for Nathanal Hawthorne's book. To be honest, I never read it, it took all I had to get through the Scarlett Letter. I tried to get pictures of all seven gables, but it was rough getting around. Plus I thought the house would be a lot bigger.

Yup it's me in a stockade.


Here I am in trouble as usual.


Salem











My mom and I went on our first overnight trip together! Our destination for the big occasion? Salem Massachutes. We had a lot of fun and did a ton of walking (my legs are sooo sore today) and got to see some of the sights. I wish we had more time there, but alas, baby steps for my mom and vacations.








Here are some fun pictures of our adventure!
