Autumn strolls

I just got back inside from a chilly walk with Theo. Nothing better than walking through the dark streets with Theo's warm little hand in mine. We pondered weighty questions: Do bats hibernate? What is Halloween all about anyway? Sadly, I must report that I did not know the answer to either question, but when we got back, old encylopedia Eli could rattle off enough to satisfy Theo. And then he added more info. And more. But back to the walks. We are going to try to get out each night between now and Halloween to keep ourselves updated on all the decorations going up in the neighborhood. Oh, and Theo likes to keep track of the McCain v. Obama sign count in the hood. Tonight we came across two McCain before we hit any Obama. His quote, "Boy, we live in a bad neighborhood."
