It's been a hectic day.
This morning we stopped at Jack's for breakfast they were short-handed so we had to wait longer than usual.
Then we rode to Franklin, TN to their Pumpkinfest no parking we had to pay $10 to park.

| Very Large Pumpkin |
It was super hot and very crowded so we only stayed a couple of hours. We walked down Main Street and a couple of side streets. There were several bands playing music. Mums and Pumpkins decorated the street. Food filled the air. Rides and fun for the Children.
Hubby collected a bag of treats which we gave some to the grandkids.

| Williamson County's First Taxi |
Our big treat was finding the Williamson County Archives Museum. It had several rows of quilts made by locals. Military Room, History of Williamson County, Civil War Artifacts, Displays of an Old School Room, Doctor's Office, Dress Shop, Barber Shop, Country Store, etc. We saw a horse-drawn carriage by Harry March in Franklin’s First Taxi.
We saw where the body of a headless Col Shy once lay in a busted open casket. An article The Curious Case of Col Shy’s Casket. The headless body was unidentified.
Outside was a Civil War Canon.

We stopped at Publix in Spring Hill to get some chicken wings from their deli and also pick up a few other items.
We stopped in Lawrenceburg at Long Silvers for a plate of fish and chicken.
Came home and ate a late lunch.

| Fun Began in Halloween Manor |
 |
| Criminals |
 |
| Ava, the killer Jason Voorhees, and the Evil Clown Pennywise |
Picked up Ava and River around 4:30 and took them to Killen Park for their Trunk n Treat.
Ava dressed up like Wednesday from the Adams Family and River was a Ninja Turtle.
We got there a little early so we let them play in the playground area. People started lining up so we got in line.
It was a long line behind us. We walked through the gate of Halloween Manor that is when the fun began.
The kids got lots of candy, a fireman’s hat, coloring books, and safety books. They got their pictures taken with Inflatable pumpkins, at the Shriners Hillbilly Jeep, With Hocus Pocus, with Dept of Eye Care, Jason Voorhees, and Pennywise the Dancing Clown.

| Making Slime |
Their Treats end with making Slime. Put in a bag and taken home.
They did a great job by only letting a few kids at a time go into the park.
The kids had a great time.
