Who loves Halloween? Raise your hand… Did you know that 25% of all candy sold in this country is consumed at Halloween? Thats a LOT of candy! But many don’t celebrate the day… In fact, many are against it all together and consider it to be an exercise in Evil 👻 What do YOU think?
For more information and some history on this weekends “celebration” click here – https://www.history.com/topics/halloween/history-of-halloween
Have a safe, fun Halloween 🎃 👻 🧛♀️

October is flying by 💨 Its just a few more days till Halloween… I was looking through some older images of Halloweens past and when I came across this one I knew it had to be todays #Throwbackthursday memory.
I think we may do a repeat of this tonight!
Happy Halloween! And Happy Throwback Thursday!

Well, we are into the 1st full day of Fall now & boy does it feel great! 46 degrees this morning! It really feels like we changed seasons 😊 The next big holiday around the corner is Halloween 🎃 which lead me right too this old throwback memory of Halloweens long ago…
I may wear this same getup for this years Halloween! How can a guy go wrong as a cowboy?! Do you think you could wear your 6 guns and holsters to a school function nowadays? 🤔 Me thinks not… But let me tell you one thing for certain! That boy you see in that picture there, would have for sure! I guess cowboys had more sway back then… Lets bring back Cowboys! 🤠🇺🇸
Heres to the spirit of Fall! Bon fires🔥 Football 🏈 Beautiful color 🍁 and dont forget Halloween! 🎃
Have a great #throwbackthursday!

Halloween is Saturday, Tuesday is Election Day & who knows what the future holds… Its nice to be able to see a glimpse into the future… I just ask The Great Zultan.
The good thing is, if you don’t like his answer you can ask him again 😊

It’s October kids, and we are quickly approaching Halloween 🎃 What a perfect time to discuss the scariest of all fish – The Ghost Koi!
The “Ghost Koi” is a product of breeding a mirror carp with a metallic Ogon Koi. For this reason many Koi purists don’t consider them a true “Koi”…
They are a very hardy fish and much less susceptible to diseases than most. They also grow extremely fast! Both of these traits make them a great first Koi!
Ghost Koi don’t have a lot of markings like other Koi so their beauty comes from their shining metallic scales! Their colors can vary from dark to cream to silver and even golden. The head is generally creamy and the body colors will widely vary, depending greatly on the parents color.
I guess what I’m saying is, even though they have a scary name, & the fact that it is almost Halloween – Don’t be wary of the Ghost Koi! They are really pretty cool
Enjoy your Koi! AND Have a –
‘HAPPY HALLOWEEN’!

I just heard it was Monday morning… WOW! Already?! Got anymore of that weekend… 😂
In the Halloween 🎃 Spirit, here’s a little video I took for y’all a few days back. The water in Kentucky Lake is down to Winter pool, which exposes lots of beaches and banks and little island areas for birds to land. I just happened upon a large group of Buzzards 😱 They were hoping around and eating something… I drifted up toward them quiet as possible, I even killed the engine as you will hear in the video… It’s kinda funny, the second I pushed the record video button, they jumped and started flying off 🦅
But they didn’t go far. Watch as they circle and start landing in that big old dead tree in the distance… A “Buzzard roost”.
Question : Do you know what a large group of Buzzards is called?
Answer: A Wake…
Have a great Monday Morning!
Happy Halloween 🎃 👻😱

Good morning! It’s #Throwbackthursday! I was looking through old photos of Halloween’s past and found this very special photo of Jacobs first best friend… his dog Tracker. Tracker was always a good sport and went along with any crazy 😜 dress up plan that Jacob and Jo came up with. She especially Loved Halloween 🎃 Probably all the treats and snacks that she got 😊 Dogs 🐶 are truly mans best friend!
Have a Great Throwback Thursday! And Happy Halloween 🎃 👻
