Happy November

 November 1, All Saints Day, and November 2, All Souls Day.

Isn't this sculpture colorful? It resides in Calistoga, CA. Most communities with a good sized Latin population celebrate Dia de los Muertos in some way. I feel fortunate live in such an area. The alters and art work are amazing.

Happy Halloween

 

Happy Halloween

From ghoulies and ghosties,

Long-leggety beasties,

And things that go bump in the night,

Good Lord, deliver us.

Welcome October.

 My goodness, is it October already?  Here's a little calendar from way back that fit this year perfectly.  I'm going to use it on my phone screen.  Hope you have a lovely month.

Happy Cinco de Mayo

 

Today is Cinco de Mayo.  The holiday originated in Mexico but has evolved into a celebration of Mexican culture and heritage by much of the large Mexican-American community here in the Bay Area and other areas.
