tracker7It's October, by the calendar if not the thermometer. Halloween is on the horizon, our last best line of defense against the constant encroachment of Christmas.
I miss the weirdest thing about this time of the year - running around Azeroth. I love the virtual decorations and the seasonal quests.
It being October, I'm running my Age of Rebellion players through a conversion of West End's old Otherspace module. They got into it quickly, and are running with the spirit of the thing. It was a great spooky experience twenty years ago, and the adventure has aged pretty well.
Bowman Field hosted its aviation festival over the weekend. Saturday afternoon, on my way to an Armada match, I saw a Ford Trimotor moving out of its parking spot for a flight (and a few minutes later, got passed by a whale-tail 911 on I-64). Saw and heard plenty of flyovers of the neighborhood yesterday, but today was the big winner. Had an errand taking me into the Highlands; on my way out, I saw the C-130 idling at the south end of the taxiway. Came back, and while I was waiting to turn left onto Dutchmans, I got to see and hear it take off! Came tearing down the runway and went right over my car - watched it through my sunroof, even.
