The Halloween Holiday Spirit is Still Alive & Well & Granddaughter Lyla & Her Pumpkins & Her Nana Cecile

“There is magic in the air when pumpkins shine in the sun by day and glow in the moonlight by night.”

There may not have been too many trick or treaters this year, but the Halloween spirit was still alive in spite of Covid-10.

During a bike ride, I took photographs of the local merchant’s decorations in the neighboring downtown historic village of Saratoga and one in San Jose.

Also, every year our neighbor’s daughter brings her more ghoulish artistic Halloween decorations to life, even if it looks like they came back from the dead. Her creations are strategically placed between the townhomes of two neighbors on our cup-de-sac above the upper pond and waterfalls where we live. The first series of photos are of Lyla with the pumpkins in front of her home and neighbor next door, in Redwood City, including one with her Nana Cecile.

Enjoy the photos and the spirit of Halloween leading up to Thanksgiving.
