Happy Fall & Happy Halloween!

Greetings to all Manter's from a Boise Manter!! I thought I would include this picture I captured a week or so ago on historic Harrison Blvd... although the "City of Trees" does have some beautiful areas of town where the colored leaves decorate the streets, sidewalks and lawns... it's NOTHING compared to the displays out East. Oh how I wish I could have done a fall trip this year, but it just hasn't been the right time. I do so love this time of year, enjoy the change in weather and find those who complain about the weather are, well, just complaining. No matter how strong willed one may be, no will is match for Mother Nature! I embrace the change, at it signals the beginning of the holiday season! A time for laughing, getting together with family and friends, great conversation, special holiday moments and sometimes, slipping an extra splash of burbon to Grammie's "egg-nog"... Hi Grammie!! ;) (tee-hee!) Of course, it also signals the ending of a year and the start of a fresh beginning! I hope that this posting finds everyone happy, healthy and loved!
