I split to go upstate to Gavin and Katie's for Halloween weekend with Anton, Tom, Eliza. Brookes and Brooke.
I must say, it was quintessential autumn all around.


Anton and Tom


We all did our own thing during the day. Brooke, Anton and I went on a drive

We rode around in Anton's new Mad Maxed out pickup truck with the customized by Anton custom topper

It's nicknamed The Battle Wagon





We stopped a lot to absorb what was happening around us. AND it was Brookes birthday!


Anton lived in a tent outside New Paltz for 3 months in 2001 and had a painting studio in this barn

Tom and Gavin rock climb and man-out on these cliffs. They're called the Shawnagunks


milkweed silk



Went to the pumpkin patch and choose our own

15 bucks seemed cheap to us city folk


Upstate overload! We went to the Rivendell Winery too



I found this post card on the side if the road when I made Anton pull over for a photo. It's from the year I graduated
highschool and has really enjoyed a full life so far - Born in Belgium (city of beer) moved to Massachusetts then to
New Paltz, then into my hands and NOW is forever on the world wide information superhighway

We made it back to Gavin and Katie's by dusk and heard a distant roar from over the hill behind
their barn. I felt like I won the lotto when Anton told us the Accord Speedway was through those woods






We hiked through the woods back over the hill before it got pitch black out
