I spent the day in the pumpkin patch with my daughter, granddaughter, and four kindergarten classes.  What a wonderful way to kick the Halloween season off!  They had a petting zoo, hayrack rides, a corn maize, and for a grande finale we all settled beneath the fall trees for a picnic.  The farm is 400 acres and beautiful with fall foilage and rolling hills as far as the eye can see.

While there I asked around for any halloween stories, anything that goes bump in the night.  Surprisingly, personal stories weren’t shared but I did get a few tidbits on local hauntings.  A nearby Inn that may have a child ghost, and of course we have battlegrounds around this area.  My daughter has one a block away, close to the lake.  The Inn I spoke of was once used as a hospital during the Civil War.  So, the energies there, I’m sure, are quite noticeable.  I plan to research the history, and maybe a few ideas will brew for a future work…ya never know!

So, enjoy your Halloween all, and may inspiration come to you in unexpected and delightful ways!

Just wanted to let ya know, I’ll be discussing dreams at Magical this coming friday.  It pertains to my WIP, and how little puzzle pieces can connect in dreams.

Also, I received a new book review for Butterfly Wishes at My Shelf.  Connie Harris wrote a great one, and I’m thrilled she enjoyed my debut novel.  Made my day, I tell ya! 

Hope all is well in your world.  Keep me posted about what’s going on!
