The Super Mega Fest is happening this weekend in Framingham, MA. Out front is a DeLorean from Back to the Future. For a twenty buck donation to the Michael J. Fox foundation, you can sit in the car and get a Flux Capacitor pin. There isn’t enough space in the parking lot to get up to 88 mph and activate the Flux Capacitor. 😉
Over four years ago I put up a bat house in our back yard…

… but did any bats move in? Nope. I thought it might be due to the disease that’s decimating the bat population around here, but then, while cleaning out the gutters, I found a bat.
A dead one. Not due to the disease, but trapped as it tried to escape from behind a bedroom window shutter. I loosened the shutter, pulled out the unfortunate winged mammal, and tossed it into the woods.
Every autumn I tell myself I should get some of the oak trees in the yard taken down.
Halloween has come and gone again! Eric came up with some nice designs, and I did the carving. Eric says the one on the right is Japanese for pumpkin.
