Fall holidays, the first half

At this time of year we get to celebrate the Fall Holy days.  We are about half way through them. Sukkot is still coming up, but here's some pictures from the first part... and some extras.

Everything ready for Rosh HaShannah (Jewish New Year) dinner!

Yom Kippur - While it is a day of fasting, we still had Shabbat dinner, but because the local stores weren't making Challah for Shabbat, we made our own.


Campfire one evening to hang out at,


Yom Kippur. 
Everything closes down for the day, all the road as empty. The usual noises of traffic are absent. The only cars out are police or ambulance. 


And so you can walk in the middle of a major road... just because you can.
and there are lots of bikes out today!
