Marcus served up his famous deer chili and friends and family provided plenty of side dishes for all to enjoy. Pumpkins were decorated by the little ones, apples were bobbed and hayrack rides were plentiful.

We finished out the night with a big bonfire and toasty s’mores. The stuff autumn dreams are made of!
