Baby, I’m amazed
I was catching up with friends, actually neighbors, yesterday evening and went to sit on the porch with some and chit chat, and then while walking Loca and Wolfie caught up with another. Another neighbor had left a little package on our doorstep – a basket with a gourd wrapped in a sheet that looked like a ghost and two little eggs that were supposed to be ghost eggs. It had a paper cut out ghost and the instructions said to place it on our front door and to give to other neighbors a boo gift too. So I did.
Last year, someone kept stealing our pumpkins off the front porch and carving jack o lanterns out of them. This year, it’s the gift of book while the pumpkins go untouched.
Dusk and dawn across the bayou – to the east – have taken on details you would find in an oil painting because of colors and textures and light. Quite amazing.
