A Harvest Halloween
To take advantage of the last days of autumn, we planned an outdoor Halloween party at our family farm. This gave us an opportunity to bring our friends together in an informal setting before the hectic holiday season.
The kids grew excited as we drove past the harvested fields of rural farmland, the grazing cattle, and brimming roadside stands. The sights and smells of the country awoke their spirits of adventure and they burst from the car as soon as we stopped at the end of the dirt road.

Getting Great Pictures of the Kids this Halloween
There she was in all her glory. Long white lab coat, frizzy hair, safety goggles -- and a face smeared with the black ash of an experiment gone terrifically wrong. She was, at least on this Halloween night, Dr. Abby Normal. But for most of her life I had known her as Abigail, my daughter, and I had just taken some of the most legendary photos of her life.

Halloween & Hounds
Halloween is “fright night” for humans not dogs. Screaming, running, spooky children in masks make many dogs uncomfortable, nervous and frightened. Halloween costumes are fun and are meant to disguise our normal appearance. Dogs do not understand this change in appearance and may become frightened. Costumes that change the way a person walks, stands, or their general appearance may cause a dog to react different then usual even with those they know.

Hand Surgeons Offer a No-Trick Method for Treating Your Family to Pumpkin Carving Safety
The American Society for Surgery of the Hand (ASSH) urges pumpkin carvers to use caution this Halloween season and take steps to prevent hand injuries when carving pumpkins.
“While many people enjoy pumpkin carving, it can also be dangerous,” says Alexander Marcus, MD of Orthopedic Associates of Edison, N.J. “Each Halloween, hand surgeons treat lacerations of skin, tendons, arteries and nerves because the wrong carving tools are used.” Safe practices, including inexpensive carving tools, may reduce the number and severity of injuries.
