Great photos. I love the balloon pumpkins of Mickey and co.

It is, to me, so WRONG that people can be walking around in t-shirts on Halloween. Over here, there was snow on the ground!

Phil,
I've never even seen it snow. (ducking)

I was glad to see the Bradbury Tree in FrontierLand, but I had always envisioned a big Halloween Tree in front of the Haunted Mansion?

Don't worry, you'll see plenty of snow if you come to the Summer Olympics in London in 2012...

The UK is still in the Northern Hemisphere so why would there be snow in Summer? It was so cold today I had to put on a long sleeve shirt today to walk to work, no jacket just a long sleeve shirt. Smiler

It's so cold out here on the coast today that I had to shut one of the windows in the living room and put on a long-sleeve shirt!

It must be Fahrenheit 64 out.

Ah, you southwesterners! Here, two days before Halloween it snowed five inches. The snow hung around for a couple of days, but by the big night itself (we had absolutely perfect autumn weather for Halloween) only a little snow remained in the shady areas...

In the Land of Trees and Heroes? PA, I believe, a swing state. Oops - wrong thread.

Doug, PA is the "Keystone State".
California is the "Catatonic State"
(or maybe the same as PA without the "key"...)

Ha---yep, wrong thread but what the heck. I'm going to vote tomorrow, and then to relieve some of the stress I'm feeling about the election I'm going to go to an architectural salvage place and see if I can dig up some corner blocks that will match the dining room woodwork... Man, I'll be glad when the election is over...

Yeah, but then the 2012 campaigns begin on Wednesday.

You betcha!

Fortunately, the UK media will be so obsessed with the approaching London Olympics that they will ignore the 2012 US elections. (Unlike this time, when they have given us saturation coverage. There are more BBC reporters in the US right now than there are in the UK.)

Meanwhile, this is what the UK was like last week:

CA is The Golden State. Please help us to keep it that way, green and golden, bring money!

BTY, we really do not need weed to get high out here, just an hour or two on a non-moving parking lot freeway will do the trick nicely. I guess that is why they are called HIGH ways, eh?
