Tis the Fall Season and approaching
Halloween even in my Doll World!
You know when you quickly change your battery in the camera and forget to change the date----well, I went through years---1968-2015 and fished out some photos that may have never been shown on the blog. Some had made it into Google archive---but others might have been lost in those crazy OLD files.

I haven't set up the Hotel for almost 2 years. I've been so busy with major projects and pandemic issues. These three photos are of the first Fall decorations on the Grand View (remodeled Grand Hotel)

Covid Restrictions closed all indoor food service for so long---at least outside the Patiesserie they could have a snack.

It really is so fun to decorate---and I love peering in the windows.

Last year at Trish's Blue Sprinkling Can garden center. I love Fall and this will be a bit more complicated now with the new shop on that lot, also.

Trish is from the St.Charles, IL Area ---a long haul to the near Northside of Chicago. So now she has moved into the city.

I personally love Fall and Halloween---and the mini gourds and decorations are so much fun to do. Teresa does interviews for the News.
