[Alice au Wonderland]

Oh, man. I forgot about the pumpkins. Ugh.

The costumes are all ready: A cowboy, a geisha, a ninja, and a greek god. The candy recepticals are all ready. I'm not ready.

We really lucked out when we moved to our present home. We live on a fairly busy road with no sidewalks, so trick-or-treating does not take place here. Up the hill and down the side streets, is another matter. The people seem to view halloween as a national holiday and dress up their houses, their yards, and themselves. It is an awesome experience! The kids are laden down with pounds of candy within forty-five minutes. The best part, from the grown-up perspective, is the house that offers hot cider: one for the kids and another (hehehe) for the adults. The kids look forward to Halloween for weeks.

Yeah... this is our neighborhood. We gave out close to ten pounds of candy last year. It wouldn't have been so bad, but I was stuck down here while they were up North.

I guess we'll see. ;-)
