HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Merrie October 31st!  The pattern below is a design by Lori Brechlin that I hooked a few years ago.
It is a very warm Hallows Eve.  I rescued the vintage decoration below from a thrift shop years ago.  I had to tape the feet as they were bent so badly.  I've often thought about hooking an image of it or at least the face but so far that hasn't happened.
Today the temperature rose to record high for this time of year.  I even took a photo, poor that it be, to show the outside temps on my smart thermostat at 3:21 p.m.
While I can't imagine the inside temps will drop below 62 tonight, I've set the temperature just in case it does 👻.

The folks in my neighborhood who have dogs decided to take them on a Halloween stroll thru the neighborhood, anyone who wanted to participate could.  What a cool thing to do. Although I don't have a dog now wish I'd purchased some treats and turned on my house light so they would have stopped by to give each of them a treat.  Hope I remember next year to buy doggie treats for the neighborhood pups.  

There's one guy in the neighborhood who has a Great Dane and 3 rescued dogs.  Actually he and his wife are the ones who organized tonight's event.  His dogs are very well behaved and everyone here considers him a 'dog whisperer'.  That isn't or wasn't his job, it is just that he loves dogs.  Several folks in the development have taken their dogs to him to for an afternoon play time when he takes his dogs out for a walk hoping some training will rub off.  

Will share about my day today, my accomplishments, my failures and my to do's tomorrow or Saturday.  Gonna be another very warm day tomorrow again.

  2. I think you should hook that cat someday. It would be a nice one. A great idea for the dogs in your neighborhood. Hope your Halloween was a good one. Janice

  3. Sadly our warm weather ended yesterday and today is rather chilly. For as beautiful and warm the weather was for the trick-or-treaters last eve, I had less than normal numbers of kids. I'm guessing about 80-90 where normally there are many more.
    The pooch parade sounds like loads of fun.

  4. Ugh...another invisible post until I hunted it down. What is going on???!!! Anywho...you know I've always loved each and every one of your Halloween rugs and this one is one of my very favorites. Halloween here was rainy, windy, and COLD. I only had 6 trick or treaters...and all were peeps who made special trips out here b/c they now I love seeing the littles in their costumes. Can't believe Lauren said 80-90. Wow. LOVE that vitage Halloween cat to pieces! ~Robin~
