It has been snowing off and on today — Wahoo! We got some minor flurries on Friday, and Harry and Anita got a light dusting. Winter is here. It is just a matter of time before we are back on the slopes — I can’t wait.

In other news I’m heading to Evasnville tomorrow and will be there through Friday.

Here are some pictures from Halloween. Ali and I went down to Jen and Rob’s and went trick or treating with Caitlyn and her cousin Ashley. I am the paisley ghost (an idea I stole from David as he was once a paisley ghost back in our college days).

I got some good pictures of Bailey playing with me from inside a box recently …

Ali bought me a mandolin for my birthday! It is a fender FM-52E acoustic / electric. Although, I don’t know how to play much on it yet, acoustically it sounds sweet. I haven’t had a chance to plug it in to see how the electronics sounds yet. All in all, I must say this is a pretty cool birthday present.
