The Fruit of Fall
Halloween may be a booming holiday for those who like the scare factor, but fall is also a great time for children and adult alike to celebrate the harvest season. And Lebanon, Ohio, is just hte place to party.
Those who visit the Lebanon Mason Monroe Railroad any Saturday or Sunday from September 27 to November 2 can ride the Pumpkin Patch Express. Passengers will ride the restored train to Shappacher Farm to pet farm animals, explore the corn maze and, of course, pick a pumpkin. Advance tickets are recommended, so contact www.lebanonrr.com.

to bad this pumpkin express is not here mita. children love holloween, specially the coming trick or treat as its like the time they can really gorge on sweets with permission from parents.

I also wished we have that Pumpkin Express here coz I would be one of those who will take the ride. I remember last year, I prepared lots of candies but no one came to our door. =(

You should ask them Manang Ror. but i’m sure they are familiar with the Mason Monroe Railrod and they may have rode on it already.

that would be great for the kids. here in australia, halloween celebration is not as popular like in the US although some kids enjoy the “trick or treating”. I just normally buy chocolates for my kids and for the kids who drop by at our place and ask for treats.

i think it’s because of the cold weather sis. i have seen flu shots available in the stores. TS and I are taking multivitamins since this month so we won’t get sick.
i hope you will have a good weekend.

I’ve always been fascinated with Halloween celebration; children dressing up in supposed scary outfits and asking for treats. It seemed fun and the children looks very cute. But as what Eden said it’s not a popular thing here in Oz.

lagi Herms no? they’d look really cute trying to look scary. that’s funny! when you come over at this time of the year, i think you will enjoy it!

Halloween isn’t all about spooky stuff, it also is a time of enjoyment for children wearing those cute costumes and the treats they’re gonna get on those trick and treats. The latter is getting popular here in the Phils. especially in malls.
Hope you have a wonderful day, Jacy!

hope you had a good weekend there, tita Beng!
