I am not one of those who appreciate
the sun going down so early.

My much loved and creative sister-in-law made this
little angel baby soap as a gift for my mom.

Could you ask for a more beautiful day to
exercise your right to vote?


I voted.
And I hope you voted as well.

It the first glorious day of November and what better time
than today for a picture of a moose. A moose that "ejects"
jelly beans when you lift his tail. I think he is very cute
in spite of that rather unsavory detail.

Happy Halloween 2025 from Lizzy Tex Borden
and all of your friends at El Rancho De La Tex!


When the sun goes down, we at The Ranch we will
be feasting on hot dogs, beans and whatever else suits our
fancies. Shortly thereafter we will light the jack-o'-lantern
candle, dim the lights and gather 'round the screen for a
showing of SAW X. We've been saving this one for
just the right time and tonight is it.

Whatever it is that YOU ghouls and ghoulettes have
planned, scare the wits out of each other safely
and have fun my friends!

What a cute little cat bat, or bat cat.
Not sure which. But he is cute.


And you gotta collect 'em all. But
I would do it on Saturday when I bet
they will be 50 percent or more off.

I am partial to Jason Duck of course.


This SPOOKTOBER at The Ranch has been a pretty
mellow one. I mean... plushies? So MANY plushies?
Let's ever so slightly attempt to balance things out
a bit and recover at least a little of my reputation.
Here are the guys again.
 I feel better now.

Tomorrow is the big day!

And here is the jack-o'-lantern that I bought
in 2007 that makes an appearance just about
every Halloween, although he didn't come
out this year. I unfortunately didn't
decorate the house for 2025.
I'm a slacker.

And now, the Skeleton Candelabra.
He looks like he could use a break.

I bought WEAPONS on Blu-ray. They say this movie is
pretty fun. Gonna save this one for Halloween Eve or
Halloween Night. Not long to go now.

I went to the dentist to have sutures removed after
having had a few teeth pulled and I was greeted by a
semi-great pumpkin patch. Halloween is going kind of
soft/retro at The Ranch this year. Just kind of happening.

I gotta get some bloody slasher
action in here someplace.

Awww... It's little Wednesday's doll.

Spirit Halloween does not mess around.
A lot of these props look TOTALLY real.

SPOOKTOBER Off-Topic Approved Post!


Yes, it is still SPOOKTOBER, but I really want to
post some pictures of this new tool I bought. These
are the Knipex Cobra XS Water Pump Pliers. This
guy is only 4" long with up to a 1" grip capacity! I can
carry this in the bottom of my bag or purse AND they
will fit perfectly in the 5th pocket of my Wranglers.


I bought these pliers to compliment my Victorinox Fieldmaster
(that I have been carrying for 4 years) Swiss Army Knife.  Not
much more I can say about this guy other than he is SUPER
 strong and SUPER grippy. He is gonna come in SUPER handy.
Did I mention that he is ONLY 4" LONG?!

 I have a pair of the Knipex 5" pliers that I bought
in September of 2023 and they
are fantastic as well. 


Here is the box they came
in from Amazon.com.

Stay tuned for more
SPOOKTOBER 2025!
