First Trick-or-Treating...

It was a great night to get out and meet/chat with our new neighbors and for "Bradley" to get her first round of Halloween loot.  Her buddy Nathan came by to share in the fun until his puppy paws got tired and he had to head home.

Pumpkin Picking...

After several failed attempts at getting to a pumpkin field, we finally made it to College Run Farm to pick pumpkins.  Yesterday.  It was a perfect afternoon to take the ferry to Surry--Bradley seemed to enjoy the seagulls and the breeze. 

  

This is where the photos end--Despite the idyllic images I had photographed in my mind on this trip to pumpkin glory, B fell asleep in the car and Frank and I ate pumpkin ice cream in the gravel parking lot about three feet from our sleeping beauty.  I picked out my family of pumpkins from the "already picked" section in the farm barn.  It wasn't quite the afternoon that I had envisioned, but the ice cream was delicious and I didn't have to get my shoes dirty tramping through the fields.
