the moon

the moon looks like the chesire cat's smile from alice in wonderland tonight.
i can picture the cat appearing to match the smile.

it reminds me of bonfires at my aunt's house (across the road). what grand times.

cold cold weather, but we didn't care; we were so little. when your little, you hardly mind how cold or how hot it is if you are having fun. roasting marshmellows, plenty of teasing from "mean dean", and hayrides.

oh the hayrides. pop-pop's tractor and the wagon with lots of hay of course! we rode through the swamp. so creepy! dark woods, trees overhanging the road,you had to look through the leaves (or the branches when the leaves were gone)to see the stars.
even creepier if their were no stars. fun times of scary stories. who could scare everybody the most?

yet no matter what time of the year it was, we always ended up singing christmas songs. thanksgiving may not have passed, but we still sang'em!
