No Rest for the Wicked

The past few weeks have been hectic to say the least! A marathon of events and appearances is finally slowing down for the season and I am really looking forward to a little R&R.

Halloween weekend went off with a bang thanks to the 200+ people who turned out to Shirley Plantation for their annual cemetery walk and book-signing. A costumed interpreter portrayed Virginia's most unusual ghost, Aunt Pratt, and led visitors through time at the 400-year old historic site. Pratt, whose portrait is said to cause quite a disturbance when moved, will definitely be back for another year of haunting!

Again, I am incredibly grateful for all of the open-minded and receptive people I've had a chance to meet and work with this year, especially those at Shirley Plantation. If you have a chance to pay them a visit soon, please tell them I sent you!
