Trick-or-Treat Dog

Our daughter was here from FL from the hurricane. She went back yesterday. Her apartment had minor issues (water coming in at windows) so she was very lucky.

Spooky Skeleton in casket

Sending this to my sister for Halloween who loves skeletons. 

Update on Hurricane Milton which is now a category 5 hurricane but expected to be a category 4 when it makes landfall. It's still unknown where it will hit and the Tampa Bay area has not had a direct hit for 103 years - Our daughter Emily decided to drive back to NC (where we live) on Sunday. My sister and mom live near where the hurricane is supposed to hit. They are not leaving. They are both on high ground and staying in place. Emily was in a much more flooding zone. I'm glad she's here. They were just hit with Hurricane Helene a few weeks ago and were without power for 4 days. I think this time will be much longer. Prayers needed for all of Florida right now. It's just devastating to watch!
