33rd Annual Vintage Home Tour in Riverside this weekend

$30 a ticket to tour five historic homes that showcase different architectural styles over the years. I did it a couple years ago and they included Victorian, Craftsman, Tudor, Spanish Revival, and Mid-Century Modern houses, all absolutely gorgeous. They pick a new selection of houses every year, it's a must for anyone into architecture (or landscaping & interior design)!

Found lost elderly dog in hills between Riverside and Moreno Valley

I found this poor blind senior terrier(?) yesterday in the hills above the Riverside STEM Academy (at 33.966189, -117.309286).

He had a hard time walking, so I had to carry him back to my car and at one point peed blood on me, so I believe he's pretty ill. 😞

None of the neighbors I talked to knew him, and animal control had me bring him to the emergency vet in Grand Terrace. The vet couldn't find a chip, but I'm really hoping that this guy wasn't dumped and can be reunited with his owner!

Fifth Halloween in Riverside, and the number of trick-or-treaters has slowly grown each year. Gave out over 80 full sized candy last night, and plenty of screams!

This year I tried something my dad used to do, and dressed up as a scarecrow with the bowl on my lap. With that and my husband dropping a spider from above, we put the scary back in Halloween! 😈

Or as one parent put it, "you make them work for that candy!" 🤣
