Hey Wayne!! Where are those Pictures??

Today by the pond, Plants are now dead and dying after the last couple days of very hard frost. Pumps still running and I did clean out the filters all good last week. Fish have moved to the deepest parts of the pond now and still look lovely with their deep orange colors. Fish not moving very fast now and I have not fed them for a good month now either! The nets are still up cause some leaves continue to fall... WINTER is COMMING SOON!!

I see it has warmed up quite a bit tonight, and it should be a nice days tomorrow for Halloween. I fell asleep early today at about 7pm, now I am wide awake! Must get back to bed cause I have to work very early in the morning. Got a couple nice shots the pond this afternoon, and I am so happy it will be much warmer for my favorite day Halloween!

The last two pictures is of my friend and her halloween stuff today....

That was my friends house, she does a good job for sure. I had a really good halloween, hubby and I carved pumpkins, then we gave out lots of candy to only about 20 kids this year, about half the usual amount. I think lots of people still not living down in there homes here cause they got flooded with sewer this spring.

Last night turned out to be very nice, weather was better that predicted, and we hit a high of about 50 degrees I think. My neice and her kid came down and my friend Cathy too with her little 4 year old daughter, all dressed up so nice as a witch! I was a witch too of course, and I had the powerful light in my hands!! That must make me a good witch!! :razz:

Ponds where froze the other day, water still running as usual, then it got warm yesterday and the ice all melted away quick. Thank goodness for a nice warm Chinnook wind!

I still have the leaf nets up as some leaves still blowing around the yard. Winter is just about here folks! I really need to get out there and rake the last bit of leaves away today....
