Great, we finally met the Sanderson Sisters💚💜❤️at MN Renaissance🏰Festival yesterday! Lol, Alvin is made of himself a good jester🃏. Llama are very cute when we feed them & petted them besides goats🐐& baby kangaroos🦘. I wish I'd buy that tiny house as my own art studio like that photo of Alvin's standing on the steps of it. I really LOVE Faces in the Wood including Halloween ones we bought🪵. Wow, the fire-throwing🔥performer is really very good at his awesome acting show! We will miss you until next year, Res Fes😭! Lol😆, look at Alvin who got jumped by this new pop-out Jack-in-the-box alike Halloween🎃decoration. We went out to see our close friends Jeremh & Matt's BBQ🍖outdoors party afterwards. I love playing with Matt's 9-month-old but now bigger dog🐶Sweet Pea! 😊😊😊 taken in Minnesota Renaissance Festival by @samj.w

Yesterday was our 3rd final trip to MN Renaissance🏰Festival before it closed now for next year. I made several videos there & I've not seen a parade yet until finally they came up. Boy, we loves the apple🍎caramel ice cream🍦dishes like MN State Fair🎡! Few performers gave me a few tiny gifts when I greeted them & I love their fantastic costumes especially autumn spirits. Wow, look at this homemade umbrella🌂of Hocus Pocus! I love that yellow-colored turtle🐢as my favorite color💛! I thought Alvin hated snakes🐍but now look at him petting those snakes the owners showed us he thinks they're cute, lol😄. Yeah, these rounded bedflowers💐are so very artistic beautifully. I like that cloak for my Wendigo costume but it costs $375 & I can't really afford it, yikes😬. taken in Minnesota Renaissance Festival by @samj.w

Wow, a lot of huge Halloween yard decorations at The Home Depot yesterday after our TX Roadhouse dinner in Valley Fair when we arrived there to look at those including the scarecrow, wendigo, spider, dinosaur & witch. You see, my friend Darren who has his own walk-in Halloween scary tour at his home he will open to his whole neighborhood toward the end of this October. I love my favorite holiday Halloween. ❤️❤️❤️🎃🎃🎃👻👻👻🍁🍁🍁🌛🌛🌛 taken in Roseville, Minnesota by @samj.w

Yesterday I finally got off work after another longest night shift at FedEx📦. My right leg🦵🏻hurts from heel to hip & I feels like I'm 75. I still have trouble walking up & down long flights of stairs & it's so embarrassing😣. Lucky for Alvin cuz of being a professional adventurous hiker. Wow, those people ran🏃🏻‍♂️down this chilling rainy weather🌧at Marathon in St. Paul🏙& we skipped Renaissance🏰Festival cuz of that (we can do it later today before it closes on the last day for next year). Hey, look at double rainbow🌈🌈outside while we drove by! We finally ate our steak🥩& corn🌽dinner🍽at TX Roadhouse🤠after we left St. Paul. 😋 taken in Apple Valley, Minnesota by @samj.w

No way... Connor Jon passed away yesterday??? I just met him in person once like last month recently & added him in my FB. He told me it was the wonderful best time he shared with me & he would like to accept me as a part of his big friend's circle then NOW he's gone all suddenly so still young & beautiful. We talked several times afterwards & he seems very fine & good before tragedy ended his life too soon. He loves Halloween, too. His birthday's just 8 weeks away! I noticed everyone are mourning & memorizing him all today from last night. Wow, he was very popular & being loved. Unbelievable... I'm really disappointed & dejected at his short time & we only had a new start to develop our friendship before I wanted to introduce him with Alvin someday. It's so unfair! Weird fate. 😢😢😢😢 taken in Minneapolis, Minnesota by @samj.w

Last night at work one supervisor talked to me with her moving lips while I was working then she left abruptly leaving me confused. She must know I'm obviously deaf & I can't hear what she said to me. I also CAN'T read her lips & she's still terrible at communicating with deaf co-workers like me. It made me annoyingly mad when she always do that for months. I understand many people are hard to make friends with a deaf guy like me but a few of my close friends used their cellphones to speak so I can read their sayings in these they show me. That's very easy to do & when you talk at parties or hangouts to the guests including me then you show your talk in your cellphone to me so I can read to understand, applaud & laugh. Please do that for me as your deaf friend. Nights at Saloon are hard to communicate cuz people get drunk, some doesn't wear their eyeglasses & get distracted in crowds to see & read my messages. That's why I'm not hanging out there for much while unless we meet at quieter & clear places somewhere else to sit, rest & talk. 😊😊😊🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻❤️❤️❤️ taken in Minneapolis, Minnesota by @samj.w

Yesterday after we left the Never Neverland we finally got here to see the Mermaid Cove & I love mermaids and 🧜🏻‍♀️. I know these performers, too. Some children cried & sulked cuz of long lines cuz they wanted to see the fairies🧚🏻‍♀️& mermaids🧜🏻‍♀️while they got tired. When we got hungry there was a longest waiting line at turkey drumstick stand & I finally got a couple of those drumsticks🍗for myself before they ran out by many more customers. Yeah, I love my Halloween🎃witch hat I bought from my friends' Swam Hats👒shop. I wish I'd work at Renaissance🏰Festival entertaining children & dressing up as Halloween warlock🧙🏻‍♂️. 🤩🤩🤩 taken in Chaska, Minnesota by @samj.w

We went out to Renaissance🏰Festival yesterday (Thanks God this weather didn't rain🌧unlike last Saturday) & we did a tour guide thru Never Neverland the fairy & gnome's homeland to see some friends who performed as fairies🧚🏻‍♀️& elves🧝🏻‍♂️. Lot of children who loves seeing them like they're walking into fairytale books📚& we watched them playing bubbles🫧when the dryad fairy was making those. I remember Glinda who's in a giant floating bubble from "Wicked". There are numerous cute little fairy houses🏡& gnome's tree hollows🪵scattered over the woods. 😃😃😃 taken in Chaska, Minnesota by @samj.w

Yesterday the MN State Fair🎡released a few of their seed🫘art show to MIA🖼near my apartment home🏡including the prized🏅ones. We still love that one of Dolly Parton👄🪕we idolized & devoted. Wow, this oldest Victorian mansion dollhouse🧸is so huge neside those Victorian women's dresses👗! I'd like to buy an old abandoned dollhouse🏠& paint it in black before make it into a haunted house🏚with mini Halloween decorations, monstrous dolls & a moon🌝made of polyfoam on top of it. Of course I'm a very creative artist & I made that bust of Medusa, remember? Yeah, this figure🇲🇽Mexcian people built up as their gift on the display at MIA. The staff told us they will open the new event 'Paris🗼Couture' in next weekend & that sounds very interesting! I really like their yard decorations including wooden mushrooms🍄& colored ones in the garden when we visited our friends' house🏡near MIA. Maybe we will buy a few of them for Alvin's townhouse (too bad I don't have a yard of my own & you know apartments' residents doesn't have private outdoors gardens). 😁😁😁 taken in Minneapolis, Minnesota by @samj.w

We worked out together sometimes at the gym🏋🏻‍♂️in any other weekend before we went out to look at Halloween🎃decorations in several stores (like Goodwill, Target & Michael's Arts & Crafts) we like to buy or not. Remember the photo of my decorated apartment door🚪I posted a few days ago? I'm enjoying my Halloween spirit👻since autumn started & we will go to MN🦁Zoo's Pumpkin Speculator later this coming October. A friend or couple of friends also come to join us in time. I know some of you guys miss your summer🌞fun but autumn🍁always make a beautiful life when colors in trees🌳change, great dinners🥘on stove & costumes👺showing around. 😊😊😊❤️❤️❤️🍂🍂🍂 taken in Saint Louis Park, Minnesota by @samj.w

Since autumn🍁started last Tuesday I decorated my apartment door🚪with my favorite holiday Halloween🎃today. Weird, other apartment doors are all plain except for a few ones but they're only Renaissance🏰& Viking (no viking emoji) fans. I still have to take some evenings off work this season & FedEx📦stressed me too much😵. I hate being crabby & moody from exhaustion & bite people's heads off (I feel bad about my rudeness😓). I'm enjoying to talk with some of the buddies at the gym🏋🏻‍♂️now. 😊😊😊 taken in Minneapolis, Minnesota by @samj.w
