Went for a walk in Historic Oakwood Cemetery in Raleigh, NC yesterday for Dia de Los Muertos. I thought I’d turn on this spirit box app I just got that the @legends.bsky.social fellas have mentioned. Looks like the residents were quite talkative.

There’s a big autumnal cold front coming in tomorrow afternoon and evening with a bit of rain, so I’m doing my traditional Samhain bonfire tonight instead.

My lovely lady bought a bushel of Rome apples 🍎 when we were in the Virginia APPLE-achians (I’m not apologizing). She made a small batch of apple cider last night, and started a big pot of it this morning. The house is going to smell amazing all day!

Got my copy of @folklorepod.bsky.social and @folklorewales.bsky.social’s amazing new book yesterday! The folklore shelf on my desk keeps growing!

A beautiful morning. It was unusually still: no fish, no boats, no wind.
