We drove up, up, up on winding roads in moving fog. We ascended so high into mountains that a lake of clouds lay beneath. We visited Mountainside on the mountainside and saw some friends I had forgotten to remember lately. We followed trails through the woods, asking each other what the other would do if they were in the Hunger Games, and we got a little sunburned. We got lost in a labyrinth of colored string and left with a bag of yarn and stories of French Huguenots and abandoned "ghost families." Lakeside, we took note of everything and peace was near in gentle waves and swimming mallard ducks and the sweetest breeze that dances with your hair. We ate the most delicious Himalayan food I have tasted in thirty years of life. And we drove, down, down the winding roads in setting sun, back to home to sleep in our own bed.

This weekend was successful. A tad more relaxation than productivity, but I did manage several items on my weekend list.

Since I am not a fan of blood, guts and gore- I opt for a different route for Halloween fun and decor. And thus, a few new scissor- and cardstock-induced callouses aside, I am pleased to present my little flying paper bats!

One delightful template from the ever-inspiring Merrilee, and my living room is on its way to being Halloween-ified. Poor Nadia has reluctantly abandoned pursuit, realizing that she is much too small a kitten to reach them. The best part was discovering that they make shadows on the walls.
