Haul-o-ween

Because what else are you going to do in Mt. Erie on a Saturday night?

That is Purple Truck chock full o' Halloween goodies scored at the local auction.  Note that the extended cab is full of them as well.

The boxes barely visible are 150 Shocking Autopsy games.  Go ahead, ask.  I know you want to.

Knitterbunny lamented the lack of all things Halloween on the blog last year.  Consider this my jump on the season.  It will be here before we know it. 

One day soon, I need to get into full vacation-planning mode.  As in, Jenny from the Blog is visiting tomorrow night, we have dentist appointments Thursday, and Ragged and Cynical will be at our house Friday evening.  Uh-huh, might want to start thinking about that.

In the meantime, I have picked up yet another UFO for completion.

This will make at least the third UFO to be brought back to life.  Go me.  This is a pattern I've made up, and if I ever get spare time, I could write it up.  We'll see if that spare time ever develops.

I should be able to show you three pictures of socks, but I can't because:

1) Elfine is done, but it's too dark now.

2) Super Secret Socks are done, but Jenny from the Blog won't get them until tomorrow.

3) I started the Pumpkin Vine Socks, but in the excitement of winning the Halloween stuff, I forgot my knitting bag at the auction.  Before you all gasp, my mom works there and it's safely at her house, but I can't get them until Thursday, and I definitely can't take any pictures.

Any recommendations on things one must take on vacation would be greatly appreciated.  I haven't been on a week-long vacation in eleven years.  I'm a bit out of practice.
