October is over already! It was a beautiful month except that some weekends were too rainy. Our foliage colors were great, especially the golden yellows. 
Check out my Squirrel Ridge posts for October to see plenty of pumpkins and some Civil War anniversary events.
I’m posting photos from the Cedar Creek Reenactment on Squirrel Ridge pages. The images you see here are color versions of two pictures that I converted to sepia and posted there.

Our guests are gone and the house has returned to normal but it suddenly seems rather dull. Two of Frank’s daughters stayed with us with their families, his other daughter and her husband came to dinner several times, and his ex drove up from South Carolina and shared several meals with us. She does not get to see her Washington-state grandchildren very often so this was important to her.
More pictures of the good times are on my Squirrel Ridge blog. This photo was taken at Shenandoah River State Park, Bentonville, Virginia.
