Well today is the first day of November and before you know it will be Thanksgiving and Christmas won't be to far behind. I will post a how many days till Christmas graphic every now and then to help all you bloggers who need some motivation to go out and get your shopping done. It looked like there may have been more trick or treaters in the neighborhood last night than last year, at one point mom thought she was going to run out of candy but we did have a little left over. Down in Georgia today the Crawford County Middle School will be playing in are championship against Jones County, they lost to Jones County earlier in the year and will be trying to return the favor today. I have posted an old photo from the past of a fellow blogger just hanging around the cottage at the beach, he is just so talented. MICKEY

I bet he wore a shirt the next day on the beach, he looks like he has good Ohio Tan starting.
with those big feet he had a better chance of stepping on the pungy sticks!

those pungy sticks were bad at this beach house!
Speaking of Halloween, Andrew tried to convince me to take him an Kyle down to Nags Head to Trick and Treat.
His justification and logic was Kyle has never trick or treated at a cottage. His suggestion was made @ 845 pm.
I remember that day . Mark was trying to avoid the sharks on the beach.I remember that he had just ask me if their were sharks on the beach.We have pictures somewhere of what took place when Mark encountered sharks on the beach.
I am officially accepting christmas lists from Andrew...Keith and Maureen..... Al and Donna.....Mickey.... Claire..... and I will be glad to pass them on to the jolly ole fat man.
tell andrew maybe next year you guys can take a road trip!
Andrew can still come because we have candy. I could do without the clock to remind me of how much time I have until Christmas
