To close out Halloween, tonight my partner and I went to “Rise of the Jack-O-Lanterns” with some friends. It was an incredible experience…a 45-minute walk through Descanso Gardens with thousands of carved pumpkins. Video games, the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Dinosaurs…you name it, they had it made from carved pumpkins. Definitely, something to keep in mind …

Every year my parter and I set-up a haunted-yard display. I spent the entire afternoon getting all the stuff out of the garage.

My partner, Greg, and I went on a little day trip today to Palm Springs for the Quiltfest Oasis…of course, it was the hottest day of the year! But, at least the Palm Springs Convention Center was air conditioned. We had a wonderful time, taking in all the inspiration…and, doing some shopping. We can’t wait until …
