Musings and observations about life from an East Coast native now living on the Left Coast in the California State Capitol since 2004. This fish has made her home in Madison, WI (7 years); Portland, OR (2 years); Las Vegas, NV (7 months); Middlebury, VT (3 summers); Marne-la-Vallee, a small town east of Paris, France (6 months); Middletown, CT (3 years); and Marshfield, MA, the fish's coastal hometown 40 miles south of Boston (17 years).

Halloween in Littleton

Friday, October 30-Sunday, November 1

I took a quick weekend trip to spend Halloween with A, R, F, and C in Littleton, CO. The weather was beautiful, which meant we could really enjoy our outdoor activities, including breakfast from Einstein's at a picnic table near Johnson Reservoir on Saturday morning followed by a walk around the water, time at the playground, and lots of prairie dog sightings. Saturday afternoon was a fun outdoor candy hunt at a friend's house and then a pretty impressive candy haul and decorations in the neighborhood that evening. We finished out the weekend with mini golf on Sunday morning and then just hanging out with family for the rest of the day. And we even got an extra hour of sleep on Saturday thanks to Daylight Savings Time!
