Halloween

My and Mick's jack-o-lanterns.  

(The pumpkin I carved was our greatest success to date of growing a pumpkin!) 

They guarded either side of the stairs up to the house.

The light in the upper right quadrant is through the window in the great room.  We had a great deal of oil lamps and candles, and they seem to have worked, as we certainly didn't see any sign of evil spirits!
