I hope everyone had a happy Halloween! This is Brian's pumpkin he carved for work - it looks great. October has been a busy month for us. Now that I'm feeling better, there are so many things going on. We went to Hood River and picked apples (still making apple butter, apple chutney, etc.), we had a baby shower for Tammy (first girl grandbaby, will be born Nov 3rd), I've been biking to work, gardening, taking jewelry classes, etc. My friend from work and I went on an underground tour of the shanghai tunnels in Portland, too. Last night I got to take Damien, our grandson, out trick or treating. He was so cute! We only went to the end of the block and back, but it was fun. Everyone at work dressed up and it was so hard to focus on work yesterday. When you have a doctor dressed up as a chili pepper or Elvis, it's hard to take it seriously.
