Only a few trees have begun to show a bit of color; most are solidly green except for the cherry trees which dropped their leaves a month ago in an unseemly rush.

If that gives you a slight shiver — welcome to the Halloween Tablescape Blog Hop where you'll be introduced to a selection of spooky, whimsical, or scary themes limited only by our imagination!
