Halloween 2006



Another Halloween has come and gone. We had a record high 87 trick-or-treaters last night, and they were a fun bunch.
One little ninja suddenly busted out with a song about being a ninja for Halloween.
A large group started laughing and couldn't stop themselves.
And a young girl exclaimed "I remember your costumes!" when our two witches opened the door.
Mostly though, they were scared. The smoke, fire and strobelights make it very disorienting just getting to our door.

Visible in these photos are the dead branches I piled in front of the house and along our driveway.
City brush pickup is next week, so moving the deadfall from a recent major tree disaster out of the back yard will save me time later while contributing to the spooky and decrepit look I'm after.
It was a last minute idea that bumped our show up a notch.

As of 3pm today, the whole show was packed away without a trace.
