Decorations...

The Handlers had to go into town to replenish supplies at the dry goods store this weekend. Shelf displays indicate that we're in the final quarter of the year and thus, of course there are holiday decorations going up. Garland is big here, in assorted colors.

Female Handler went into a nervous twitch mode seeing the garland...and hence the blurry picture.

What surprised the Handlers was this display of Halloween items. They knew the Day of the Dead (November 1) was celebrated, but had no idea that trick or treating was done. Perhaps it is a city thing, because out in the campo it was most definitely quiet last year. Chochi would have certainly let out a bleat or two if a blue-haired witch showed up at the barn.
