Halloween 2009



IT"S A NEW RECORD!


This year brought 325 people up our walk, through the full blown cemetery that seems to mysterously appear every year about this time. And just as mysterously dissappears almost overnight.

It was a chilly evening, but that didn't slow down the continuous line of trick or treaters that braved the temperature and decorations. If you work out the math, 325 people in 120 minutes. It comes out to 2 3/4 people per minute, or one person every 22 seconds.

One new decoration this year is the poor soul hanging upside down wrapped in webbing from the spiders by the tree.
The casket is still a favorite and the story teller got some better recognition this year in his new spot at the base of the steps to the porch.
But by far the top favorite thing is the smokey bubble machine! Many kids totally forgot the reason they had come up when the bubbles surrounded them on the porch. Bubbles trump candy anytime!
