Scarecrows and Pumpkins........

This scarecrow display in the corner of my front lawn.


...........what a face.

My friends display of pumpkins in fron of her home.



During Halloween my husband likes to sit in the middle of Mrs. Old Crow and Missy Pumpkin Head...........when the kids come around for 'trick or treat' he shines the flashlight in his face and moves, they all get scared and some scream and run away. BUT they always return to get their candy. I must mention that he wears a mask and costume. We can do this because here the kids come out after it gets dark in Toronto........so it is more spooky and scary. My street is so busy that last year after 275 kids we had to lock the doors. This year I'm prepared for more kids, but so far rain is in the forecast........it's still early so the weather might change.

This beautiful Maple tree is just down the street from me, the colours are so beautiful.
I remember my friend Irene and her husband planted this tree, that was 8 years ago. I thought it will take forever to grow.......well it has grown to be very, very tall. It is the only one with that gorgeous red colour the other maple trees are a golden yellow.
Hope you enjoyed the tour and have a great "Happy Halloween!"
