Happy Halloween
Oct. 31st, 2001 10:43 pmI escorted an eight year old witch around the neighborhood for almost two hours tonight. She gathered over 130 assorted high quality candies. Things started slowly; she was shy and really wasn't so sure about going to strange houses, and asking for free candies. She hooked up with three other kids and the frenzied sugar driven mania began. I had a Robin Hood hat (but no tights) and walked with a Dad whose dog was dressed as a ballerina. We had all the fun elements, at times dozen of kids racing around, unruly teenagers, scary houses with smoke generators and tombstones in the front yard.
