Library of Congress In The Country| October (2017 flashback)

Hey friends! I can’t believe that we are over mid-way through October? Time always boggles my mind. The days have become much cooler this week, which I think most of us are enjoying, and now we play the game of when to keep our heat on full time! I even got a freeze warning on […]

It’s All Just A Bunch of Hocus Pocus…

Pin I was probably about eight years old when Hocus Pocus came out and it has been in my life almost every October since. There was a time in my life when my brother and sister were watching it so much that we began to reenact some of it, and it’s safe to say my […]
