Halloween Time

I love this holiday and time of year! I went for a walk one day with Kristi during lunch and decided to bring my camera to capture the beautiful leaves. We had been having some unusually good late Fall weather, and "they" (the people who know) were saying that the leaves were more colorful this year due to the great Summer we had and the dry Fall days and cool Fall evenings.

The night before Halloween, I went on a Halloweener Cruise on the Portland Spirit with Cousin Jackie and her friend Laura to see Cousins Davey and Storm perform. Really fun! Lots of crazy costumes which I didn't think to take pictures of : ( For my costume, I wanted to go dark but wanted to wear my blue wig. Friend Lynda discovered on line (God bless the internet) that there is a subculture of Goth, called Candy Goth, that adds bright color and a happy disposition. Done deal!Jackie/Naughty Nurse..Laura/Gypsy...me/Candy GothSiblings (my cousins) Davey and JackieStorm and DaveyWe had 1 buffet ticket between the 3 of us, and the ticket only allowed 1 trip through the buffet. So we were good girls and followed the rules and loaded up the ONE plate with various salads, veggies, fruit, cheese and hot dogs for each of us. I felt a bit like a pig carrying that plate.
