The Halloween Pumpkin Tree!

We were out riding today, and came upon this villa.  This scene was not here, 2 days ago.  It took a lot of ingenuity and creativity to put this together.  Thats how quickly the decorations are going up.   I believe that people are tired of isolation and want to be happy, to interact with others, to show the joy of being alive and grateful for their bounty and health.
     It was a beautiful morning today.  I was invited to blueberry pancakes for breakfast.   My gosh, they were delicious!  I had a full tummy when we headed out to ride our 15 miles.  It was all the energy I needed.  Today was the 5th day in a row that I was going ou to ride. 
      Next, we met some wonderful people, Gail and her husband.   She had the most beautiful garden on the small hill in front of her villa.  It had gorgeous tropical plants,  Bell Tulip flowers, rocks from all around the world...    China, India, Canada, Japan, Brazil, Ireland, and others.  She is a retired nurse and loves to ride bikes.  So it looks like we are adding another lady to our riding group.   She is 74 and raring to go.  She also has 4 bikes in her garage.
        On our way home, we stopped to see Irene who also wants to ride with us.  It looks like a group is developing.
      The bike rides are wonderful.   There are terrific people in our community, and it's truly a blessing to live here.
