Had a nice day of Halloweening. Started out with some pumpkin spice coffee on the road and ended up at a Party City which was fully decked out for the season. Ended the day at a cozy place in Lambertville, NJ...
We traveled to Allentown, PA to a distillery with an interesting story. Bob Piano, the owner of Gallows Hill Spirits, traced his lineage back ten generations and learned that his 8-times great-grandfather Samuel Wardwell was tried and executed during the Salem witch trials in 1692. His distillery embraces this fact the same way the town of Salem, Massachusetts does - with a desire to educate the public while having some fun with the iconography. The tasting room is part museum and part tavern. The back wall behind the counter is a replica of the facade of Salem's "Witch House." On the walls there are tributes to the 20 people executed during the trials. Bats and witch hats abound.
Always Old School Halloween charm from Willow Cove. And one of the neatest scarecrows around.

Thanks, Willow Cove! Now we know how to make those long scarecrow hats (and cool straw witch hats)...
Went to a pumpkin festival this weekend and had pumpkin donuts and hot apple cider heated in an old cauldron.
One of many pumpkins.
Saw this great store porch display later in the day.
