Halloween!
Golden, Colorado: October 31, 2014

I came home from work to find Muggins has discovered our bed to be a good spot for sleeping.

 
I went outside to carve my rotting pumpkins. I had left them out on the rock island, and something
discovered them, punched holes in them and ate all the seeds. Based on how they would move around at night, I
have guessed it was the handiwork of our local deer. But it made carving so easy! (which was great, since I only
had about 5 minutes to devote to the task - got home later than planned due to proposal work) The inside was already
cleaned out for me and the sides of the pumpkin were so soft that I probably didn't need the sharp knife I had brought out there.
I worked carefully around the terrified rabbit under the junipen (juniper tree + aspen tree).












 
The cats are ready for trick or treaters! Cirrus is available, Muggins is behind the couch.

Only 24 trick or treaters so far? Cirrus is bored.
