Too cute. I would just pick up a bunch of gourds and pumpkins and line the walkways. Sometimes simple entrances are the most elegant. To be honest Deb I cant believe you have decorations up at all! You never cease to amaze.
I believe this is the company that made the bricks for my house. W.D. Trewhitt built the Scally Hotel, and I live in the Scally House. These sure look like my bricks! Southern Pacific Brick & Tile Company History In 1916, the Southern Pacific Brick Company, or the S.P. Brick Co., was organized by W. H. Shields of Fresno, W. D. Trewhitt of Hanford, and L. E. Hays of Exeter to manufacture common red brick about a half mile northwest of Exeter on Belmont Avenue. The office was located at 435 Powell Building and later 1501 Pacific Southwest Building, Fresno. Trewhitt was president, Hayes was secretary and general manager. About 25 men were employed. By 1919, machinery for the production of hollow tile was added. In 1921, the S.P. Brick & Tile Company was incorporated with a capital stock of $250,000. View of the S.P. Brick & Tile Company plant.

Despite a stiff & sore neck, I managed to do the following after work: Load 11: Closet stuff; purses, shoes, suitcases, etc. I also cleaned out the new garage, which had a gazillion cobwebs, cat poop, trash, etc. It looks good now!! Then, since I hadn't inhaled quite enough dirt yet, I started working on the yard. I raked up about 20 piles of leaves & sticks from my HUGE old oak trees (I loooove my trees!) I filled my green waste barrel within about 20 minutes, so will have to go back and fill up black lawn bags tomorrow. By then it was dark. So, I hung up my bathroom curtains & shower curtain. I then decided I was way too dirty and grimey to continue doing anything in the new house. Oh, while I was there, the Listing Agents kid came & installed my smoke alarms. It was quite funny actually.

I live in a rental. I just gave my 30 day notice to vacate the premises on October 2, Friday. I have 27 more days to live here... and the real estate agency I rent through is already placing a sign in my front yard. I went out and told the man 'I don't want anyone coming in my house until I am completely out'. He told me 'the real estate office has the right to show the house as long as they let you know ahead of time'. Ummm , what?! I need to find my rental agreement (in all this mess?) and see if there is anything written on it regarding the right to show my house while I'm still living in it . Maybe I should make it good and messy, that way they will be too embarrassed to show it again. lol
