One more day and it’s Halloween! If you take a drive around, you’ll see pumpkins making an appearance in many interesting and creative displays. The first three photos today were snapped by Donna MacIntosh when her friend (Hi Lou) took her for a drive on the Obenhoff Road in Atlantic Mine. Someone put a lot of work in making this Autumn/Halloween display and it is quite entertaining.
The bottom three photos come from Barbara Bouwkamp, who visited the Mayflower Pumpkin Farm, a small pumpkin farm just outside of Kearsarge on the Mayflower Road. They also have some creative and fun displays for the season where you can bring the kids and take photos for cute fall memories.
Today’s video excursion is from In The Keweenaw, with what their intro says is the last of the fall colors popping up in the Copper Harbor area, near Lake Lilly.

Halloween already? Very nice pix! The first three are a work of art…way to go, Donna! They remind me of Springsteen’s “Human Touch “ “Yeah, I know I ain't nobody's bargain But, heck, a little touch up And a little paint.” (contrafactum) Nice video too…love the music. It brings back memories of Ms. Sharon Smith. I miss my daily stops to her website.

Very cool pictures! I love what they do with those old trucks, always have. All great pictures. The ground doesn't look like that today, unfortunately. We have 3 and a half inches of the white stuff on our deck.

That was such fun! (Eh Lou!) And running across that lil display while cruising was the Cherry on the Top!
These are all so cool...and that video..how stunning is that!
Is there a parade in Houghton today? I see a lot of confetti flying on the MTU webcams.

I have one of those "Universal Calendars", where you flip the day over and use it for years. Needless to say, I don't always remember to turn it....
