Hello!
Well, there were some fun moments...
After work I was planning to start up the fire pit in the driveway, but I was alone and didn't feel right leaving it unattended as I finished up the food, etc. Since it was cold and a couple of my friends were already not feeling well, I decided to scrap it. Later on, we wondered why kids were passing us by even though I had all the lights on. Turns out, they were going from fire pit to fire pit. So I hollered out to a little shark and his mom and then folks started coming up to the door. So, it wasn't the flood I expected, but that was fine and the extra candy disappeared in a few days...
Meanwhile, unbeknownst to me and my dear "second family", a very special home was purposely being burnt down by developers. I plan to write a post all about that house once I find the right photos, but it was a shock to see this lovely 1929 English Tudor destroyed because the land it sat on is several acres of prime real estate. I have a lot of neat memories of the house though I only lived there a couple or so years.
Back to the fun: Here are just a few of my favorite trick-or-treaters:

| The Shark who started it all... |

| An Angry Bird... |

| Cindy Lou Who, who brought my favorite trick-or-treater of the night... |
 |
| The Grinch!!!! |
The next morning I decided to suck it up and rake leaves. But, I also raked up candy! Who says chores are thankless??? I couldn't bring myself to eat it, though it looked perfectly fine.
Until next time,
Gale
