Pumpkins & corn & such

There are some more new photos up at the photo page! We had a wonderful time at the Halloween Harvest Festival despite the extended transit ride there (Red Line to the end (North Hollywood) and then the Orange Line for a good 40 minutes to De Soto) and the dry wind… Luckily the corn maze provided decent protection from the wind if not from feral children who attack innocent, if somewhat effeminate, men trying to navigate the course with their families. Anyway, Sebastian enjoyed his surprise trip yesterday & we ended up with a nice pumpkin that we will soon carve and place somewhere in the apartment for the holiday in lieu of having a front porch. At least it won’t get smashed by some damn-fool kids, right?
