Fighting the War on Error

Servin' sweets in the streets

Now THIS is the way to spend Halloween, everyone! We live on the third floor of our building, so we brought down about $40 worth of candy, a few bottles of champagne and some lawn chairs and gave out lots and lots of candy.

Our "King & Queen of Hearts" costumes were a hit with kids and parents alike. There were lots of people out last night trick or treatin', and it was nice. What a wonderful, gorgeous day & evening it was in Philly yesterday - perfect weather for handing out candy and enjoying the neighborhood.

I'm gonna miss the warm weather. *Sigh* Fall is definitely here - November's arrived, which typically means the cold, nasty winter isn't too far off. How many months until Memorial Day again? At least I have hockey and football to hold me over, & photography, of course.

All told, we gave out candy to over 100 kids, and we didn't come out until about 7:15 or so, when the kids were already out in full force.

Too bad we have many bags leftover. :o) I have to start running again (or walking, depending on my cranky knees).

At least I have six months until I wear a bathing suit again.

Halloween picture

This is a pic from a Halloween party we went to this past weekend. As you can see, this year we went as the king and queen of hearts. We had a good time, but oh boy - we didn't wake up on Sunday until around noon.
