You knew it was going to be kittens, didn’t you?

Thanks to bah humbug Forgottenman for letting me turn the porch light on to lure Trick or Treaters. I had to be reacquainted with the intricacies of candy distribution after offering the bowl to the first two little boys and having them grab eight candy bars and start to reach for more! I’m a quick learner and afterwards handed out the candy! Here are this year’s crop of Trick or Treaters. I love Halloween.

Are you curious about that last costume? The mother told me he didn’t want to come as anything violent, so he requested to come as bacon! I love it. We had our last visitor at eight and turned out the porch light at 8:30, as all the neighbors had done the same. But, as you can see below, the candy carnage had just begun!
To see the end of the story, go HERE.
The neighbor’s goulash party was a yearly hit,
but as the new guy on the block, he’d never been to it.
And though he was a clothes horse—stylish, svelt and cool,
he wasn’t very good at spelling, as a rule.
So when he was invited for a goulash blast,
he didn’t know the party was for a mere repast.
Now here he was, dressed in his sheet, feeling pretty foolish
when no other party-goers showed up looking ghoulish.
The prompt today was ghoulish.
It’s been 15 years or more since I’ve seen fall colors. These shots were all taken over a two week period prior to my leaving Wyoming a week ago. Beautiful time of the year there. Click on any photo to enlarge all.
The Halloween challenge for today is leaves.

Sharing Mr. Teddy
Caught in baby’s neck creases, clinging to Grandpa’s cuff,
escaped from Mr. Teddy are these little bits of fluff.
These airborne little clumps of fuzz go anywhere they please.
They catch in Daddy’s nose hairs, causing him to sneeze.
They wind up in the pancakes–an artistic swirl of blue.
A few of them are tracked outside under Billy’s shoe.
When he climbs onto the school bus, they go along with him,
and everywhere that Mommy goes, to grocery store or gym,
a piece of Teddy comes along to be left behind
somewhere in the wide wide world, but he doesn’t mind.
He has so many fluffy parts that he can share a few.
And when you come to visit, you can take some home with you!!
The prompt today was fluff.

The Challenge is to create a six-word title for the post and then to illustrate it or write about it.
