Yes, I first heard of her due to Alien.

Strangely, I've never seen either of the Alien movies, though I know something about them. At some point I should investigate them, I guess. It sounds like this tv series is good.

Thanks for the link!

That sounds like an awesome trip!

I'm planning to be in Charleston the second week of Oct, if all goes well. I'm meeting one of my CA cousins there, and I think my daughter will come, too. We're all hoping to do a ghost tour, among other things.

Is that last one supposed to be Sam Hain from ToT killing them?

I wouldn't have noticed that, either, if you hadn't called my attention to it. It's a cute typo.

I did finally see a large haul of pumpkins at Kroger yesterday. I guess they're a large corporation, too. I hope yours arrive soon and aren't too costly.

Oh, wow, you're right about the 3-legged skeletons. I'd missed that.

That last picture you posted is so cute.

Always prepared!
