While returning from my soccer match this morning, I passed an entire field of abandoned pumpkins (hundreds and hundreds). It was sad to see so much potential food having gone to waste, grown simply for their decorative use on Halloween.

Today we played Peabody in the semi-finals of our division championship and came away with a definitive 8-0 win. I scored the opening goal on a header from inside the 6 yard box. I have not done much scoring this season so it was nice to chalk one up. I played one of my better games of the season despite the 24F temperature at kickoff. Temp with windchill was reportedly 18F. Next week my team travels to New Hampshire for the finals.
