Rabbit-rabitt-rabitt.. cant beleive its November already.. Its a tough month for us.. better to start and get it over with. 

Diane and I took an interesting new twist on a hike which didnt require a drive. We started up towards Duck Brook shelter on the old long trail.. but veered off to follow an old woods road (almost) down to old Stage Road. .. It was a beutiful walk.. we saw a big group of wild turkeys.. and watched them for a good long wild

Later in the afternoon, we all joined the Kenneys and townsends for a walk down to see the new Dam.. it’s filling up fast..  One cool thinkg is that they coated the damn wiht anti graffitti paint.. makes it suuuuuper slippery !

Storm’s coming.. better get home !

Tonight is halloween. Its always been one of our favorite holidays. now its a bit bittersweet .. no kids in teh house to trick or treat with, etc. We combat the ‘blah’ by dressing up and goign trick or treating ourselves.. I mean.. how else am I goign to get peanutbutter cups >?!?!

As in most eyars diane slaved away at our costums for at least 10 minutes :-).. THis year we had soem matching lights !. FIrsts top was meating up with the townsends at Stones throow pizza… then a walk up Richmond Main Street. with our longest stop on  Pleasant St to say hi to Gretchen and Marshal.. and get some of their fresh cider donuts. 

The craziest thing about tonight was the weather it as 73 degrees at 8PM at night.. thats about 40 degrees (!) warmer than it usually is this time of year.  !!!

Super fun night after all !

ps.. I got a picture from a freind today showing how a Samstone is now part of one of our bui;lldings at work.. It means so much to me that they did this !

Day started with an early fast hike up to Duxbury window (3.2 miles up and down . great way to start a day. )

Spent a good portion of the day workign to finish up a BETA project.. Lots of wires !

After work, DIane and I drove over to Bens for dinner with him. Rebar and Shosh.   We had a yummy dinner..   Ben and Shosh had braugth exotic cheese, DIane ahad made roast veggies.. We sat outside until dinner. 
After dinner, Ben used a torch to scorch the top of a pumpkin pie.. never seen that !

After dinner ,, we all moved down tot he barn to brainstorm aroudn Bens project. . I hadnt been in that boar forr a while.. Ben had a very cool bowling pinball machine and a very loooooong skittles table .

Afterwards, we wnet downstairs to brainstorm about the project. Its not my project.. so I cant go into what it will be.. but its sure fun to think about !
