Halloween Weekend Miami Beach Pumpkins and Footaball

November 1, 2009 – It’s so hard to believe it’s already November. At least for me, and Kersten said the same thing, the year has flown by so fast. We closed out October this past weekend starting off with a very nice and relaxing early lunch in Miami Beach. Kersten and I decided after taking care of some business, that we had the time to head down to South Beach along Ocean Drive for a walk and a bite to eat.

We walked Ocean Drive, and walked along the beach enjoying a fantastic late October day. It felt more like late Summer with a easterly breeze off the water and temperatures in the upper 80’s. We ate at Ocean’s Ten on a sidewalk table, enjoying drinks and food as we people watched. I shot a nice series of photographs along the beach and then we headed back north for home. Defiantly worth investing the few hours.

Halloween was also a warm and sunny day, and we pretty much lounged around the house watching horror movies and eating some junk food. Later in the afternoon we started to carve up our pumpkins for the front patio deck. By sunset, Kersten was off helping JJ get ready in his costume, while I setup the table outside with our pumpkins. We only had about 23 Trick-or-Treaters, so the evening went fairly fast. Ended the day with another movie and some burgers.

Sunday was pretty much a full day of sports for me. I watched the Miami Dolphins – Jets game, and about passed out in the 4th quarter. I was happy to see Miami pull it out at the very end for a win on the road, and to sweep the Jets. Now, as I type up this post, I have the World Series on behind me ending a great weekend.

Hope everyone has a great first week of November, because it won’t last long. These next 60 days will fly by, and we’ll all be ringing in the New Year.
