I saw it. The first sign of the holidays. I was at Costco, buying only items I really needed and nothing extra, when I walked down a center aisle and saw it. Two different styles of Fall wreaths! I understand this is only one item, but it had little pumpkins on it, so I am certain the holiday decorations are on their way to the stores. Tonight is Freshmen orientation for my oldest baby basset’s school, and their are Fall wreaths at Costco. PUMPKIN SPICE SEASON IS NEAR!!! I actually hate pumpkin spice flavored stuff, but I like the smell so I buy a few stinky candles. Anywhooo….. I wonder how many pumpkins I can buy behind my hubby’s back and hide in the front yard this year. I think my record was 12. Hmmm

In 2003, the heavy shadow of the civil war still hangs over Spain and the small Andalusian village of Quidera is no exception. A mass grave from 1936 is being exhumed just outside the village and one of the bodies expected to be found is the grandfather of Mapi Mosca, and she has brought a documentary team to record the event.

As the local right-wing group paints ‘Rojo’ and a fascist symbol on her front door, Isabel can’t stop the memories that she’s tried so hard to forget forcing their way to the surface.
