Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are doing well. The Friday before Christmas Vacation. Words can't explain the feeling here. I think about this day all year long. And somehow we have arrived. A rainy day. Happy Halloween!

Good Morning Halloween Friends and Pumpkin People alike!
The weekend before Christmas is finally here. It's unbelievable to write that. We're taking an early grocery run today and then hopefully just "hunkering down" from now until Christmas. Town is pure madness. I joked with Holly that if I had to eat Ramen every day until Christmas was over to avoid Costco, etc, that would be ok until after all the crazy is over!
Hello Halloween Fans! We have a sunny day here but not too warm. Temps staying in the 30s today. We are cleaning up around the house to prepare for my brother's arrival and of course to have room for all the Christmas presents under the tree. Happy Halloween!
Was watching A Christmas Story for my zillionth time today, but caught something I never noticed before. When Randy is asleep under the tree, he's sleeping next to a Frankenstein's monster head....

Good Morning Halloween Friends! The very final Sunday before CHRISTMAS is here!
Let me tell you something folks, it honestly hurts to write that. I can honestly also tell you that this Bers has been one of the fastest moving of my entire life. I have a couple of theories as to why, but I won't bore you today with them. I don't want to do or say anything that will take away from what we have left of Christmas Season.
I also know in here that during Christmas Season, we sort of try and 'downplay' our milestones, but standing on the doorstep to 100 DAYS TO SPOOKY SPRING is a big deal!
Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are doing well on this Sunday. The last several years I've talked about it more and more but the days off before Christmas from work are invaluable to me. I'm happy to have them and let the rest of the world take off after Christmas like they prefer. Happy Halloween!

**MILESTONE DAY**
Happy Milestone Monday, Pumpkin People!
I know we try and downplay the milestones a little in here during Christmas Season, but there is honestly no downplaying this one.
Spooky Spring is the premiere "event" in this thread outside of Halloween Season. And I'm excited to think that in 100 days, give or take 3 months, we will be back in Spooky Spring. When Spooky Spring Begins, we will be almost halfway back to Halloween. And when we come out on the other side of Spooky Spring, the next major thing to happen is Memorial Day weekend and "The Road" opening up for the 2026 Bers. It's all exciting stuff to think about.
All of us reading this thread will begin "The Slog" later this week, and it will take thinking of our special days / special moments for all the "Big 3" holidays to power us through those rough couple of weeks after Christmas is over, and prior to us reaching the 1st set of Special Days.
I hope everyone has a great Monday before Christmas!
Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are doing well. It's a cold but sunny day out there. Nothing out of the ordinary. It feels like Christmas today. Being off is such a special feeling too. I'm thankful to be taking these days off. Happy Halloween!

Good Morning Halloween Friends! Merry Christmas Eve Eve to you all!
It feels good this morning to see our Spooky Spring count under 100 days!
They are calling for snow on Friday. It's not quite Christmas by then, but it will be close enough for some feels!
Hello Halloween Fans! I hope you are doing well. We received about 2 inches of wet snow today. It made everything look like Christmas. It looks like we should have a mostly dry Christmas Eve/Day which I'm all for. Happy Halloween!

Merry Christmas Eve Pumpkin People and Halloween Friends!
Not much to say today. Let's enjoy these next two days. Nobody is ready for the "hard stop" that comes tomorrow night, but it comes just the same. That means we have to enjoy the time that we have.
Hello Halloween Fans! We have a nice Christmas Eve here with lots of sunshine and average temperatures but a little bit of a breeze makes it chillier. I can't believe we are here my friends on Christmas Eve. I miss Halloween Season . Happy Halloween!
Happy Christmas Eve all! Well, call it kismet.. Or call me the chosen one... But I stopped with a friend at a local brewery for a quick beer and was surprised to see they STILL had their pumpkin beer on tap. Guess who got the last pint? (Spoller alert... It was ME!). So not just Merry Christmas but also Happy Halloween! I've unofficially closed out the Bers...
