My 10/08/25 is a jack-o’-lantern planter sitting atop a cut log, its grin brightened by a crown of lavender mums. Turning an ordinary Halloween decoration into a quiet celebration of autumn’s gentle humor and passing beauty, it was found in Siesta Hills, where the seasonal decorations are just starting.
