Tonight's sunset was exquisite; the kind you pause to look at twice and then linger over, because it's colours will never be duplicated in our lifetimes or ever in fact. Like fingerprints, sunsets each hold their own uniqueness that must never be repeated, such is the art of life itself.
Gold, turquoise and pink with pewter edged puffs of cumulus cloud strewn across a grand horizon. It went on forever, as we all do, grudgelessly and tirelessly as is natures way.
The children and I spent the day doing whatever the hell we wanted, mainly eating junk food and running through pumpkin patches collecting up gourds and ghostly white mini pumpkins lovingly dubbed "boos!" and we bought enormous quantities of hot chocolate and cranked the stereo loud as loud could be and whenever we passed by an animal all three of us would yell out it's name, "COW!!!!"

Hoping to get out next weekend and find me some boos!
Love Jason Schwartzman, and watch The Darjeeling Company often. Isn't he great!
