Halloween Greetings

May you all have a good time today and I hope the only spirits that visit you are the spirits of good will and kindness. Take care and have fun.

I hate to admit it but I hate Halloween and always have. It is not the "holiday" of my childhood anymore. It is a scary world out there and I am not talking about ghosts and goblins.

Just got back from our bank and everyone who's working today, including the manager, were dressed up as charactors from The Wizard of Oz! Someone even brought their dog to play ToTo. They were having fun!

We're hanging out in our family room in the back of our house. Porch light is off!! We are tired of Halloween. We live in a neighborhood that gets many, many kids who don't even live here. Hate to be a party pooper, but it has just gotten out of hand. Been there, done that for too many years.

We went with the grandsons to downtown Bastrop. The community businesses closed off a block and had games and treats for all the kids. The volunteer fire dept were giving hay rides and one of the businesses had a haunted garage. All free and it was the place to be. Ending with a trip to McDonalds (kids choice). It sure beat going up and down the streets.

I just got back from helping out church provide an alternate activity for the children in the community. We had about 100-150 or so. Food, games, clowns, skits, puppet shows, candy, prizes, DC players for prizes, even an iPod for the lucky winner. It was pretty cool.

Still a kid at heart I reckon, like seeing the "lil spooks" and all the different costumes, But a person do has to be careful now a days.

Our nearby fire department, which is all volunteer, had a Halloween party, with live music, games, and a bon fire. Kids enjoyed it. We live in a rural area and this party made a lot of sense for the kids and their parents.
Heard on the news, happened in the city, a few kids had their candy taken by force by some bigger kids. This seems to happen every year! Would have been good if parents would have been with them.
Some of the kids were hurt. One was punched in the face and one of the others was cut on the hand. Forgot what the injuries to the others were. This is despicable!

We get a kick out of Halloween..True it is not like it once was.Don't care where the kids come from they are very inventive with their costumes..The little ones are soooo cute . The teenagers will take their younger siblings out and the teenagers come up with some outrageous outfits..I really enjoy it.Oh..and I remember the bigger kids taking candy from the smaller ones and that was over 50 years ago..nothing really changes.
