October 29, 2008
This morning, in the brittle cold wind and wisps of snow I took a walk around my garden (I have no idea why, I must have been crazy. My goodness it was cold out there)... anyway, by the new “bonfire breakfast” area, where I had a display of cornstalks and pumpkins I saw that the fairies had shown up!
Yes, there attached to one of the pumpkins was a new fairy door. Now, these fairies have either brought along deceased family members or they have a sense of humour and have added their own display for hallowe’en. I’m not sure if you can see them well in the picture but we have some gravestones behind a fence that they have made out of a scavenged strawberry box. Those sneaky little fairies.
I’m sure if the wind hadn’t been blowing so hard I would have heard them chuckling – or saying “boo” in their little fairy voices.

You seem to have the most mischievous fairies I have heard of. They are also extremely creative.

The wee folks must really like you since they keep poppin’ wherever you go. There’s a lot of creativity and simple whimsy there. Gotta love it.

If you find them, tell them to go south for the winter.

You’re a very creative mind Ms Deb.
I always see the potential in these things after someone like you shows me.

Nice Debbie, I think smart fairies go south for the winter, with the rest of the Canadians.<(:0)#
