It's the week of Halloween, so expect some silly, scary, spooky and other "fun type" images. Trying to lighten things up, even just a little, in these dark, scary days!!

The heyday of exchanging halloween postcards was between 1900 and 1920 and the bizarre images often had a folkloric tale to tell.

These anthropomorphic cabbages allude to divination recorded in Scotland and Ireland where the shape of a pulled cabbage stalk denoted the figure of your future love!

I plowed the field…
In my mind with you an endless yield…
But with love there is pain…
And I don’t know if I will ever plant again…

I was a little too far away to get a good video; but I thought some deer romping in the early morning might make some smiles 😊😊😊😊
