Little Pumpkin Groove
Peeking out now, from behind the green, are splashes of yellow, orange and bright red. Just highlights at the moment. They add extra shine to a day that has cycled from bright to dim and back again. It is cool but not chilly — good coffee (or hot tea) drinking weather. Ads for Halloween decorations, costumes and treats are showing (like those Fall leaves) in the Sunday paper circulars. I’ve already nibbled some candy corn: getting into the groove, don’t you know.
Autumn is stretching out wider and Amy should be back in town in a couple of hours or so. She gave me a little pumpkin that is now sitting on my desk. Seems like a good image to welcome in the orange month, so…

Hello October!
(And welcome back to Pittsburgh, Amy!)
