Good Morning everyone and welcome to Trick or Treat day also know as Halloween! I must say this month flew as quickly as those colorful leaves flew to the ground. So happy Saturday.
Two special requests here.......
1. Be safe, drive much slower, stay more alert and don't take any chances that the other person / child won't look for you. They may not drive safe and stay alert! More than ever!
2. Have fun, but watch out for each other as the kids trick or treat, take a flash light, wear reflective tape on your clothes. BE SAFE!
I posted in my photo section some photo's yesterday from a trip to the local lake here in Irwin, PA.
I hope you enjoy them. I enjoyed taking them.
Started taking pictures and learning about photography a few years back. I use a Cannon Rebel XSI and two different lenses as of now. I want to do more but as of yet.... Ya know lots to do in this world.
So enjoy and let me know what you think!
So todays post is a quick reflection as usual from a past post here on Gather. One that may not have received many views. Hope you enjoy the read this one is from May 5, 2009.
