Halloween in LA

“Asking a working writer what he thinks about critics is like asking a lamp-post how it feels about dogs.” 

Normally I don’t put costumes or clothing on my gal other than what’s required to keep her warm & dry when out for walks & such but had this lying around so decided to try it. As you guessed she wasn’t pleased but being the patient lass that she is she suffered the indignity quietly & sat for a photo. :-)

 

Ah!! .... do I have to!

Ah!! .... do I have to!

Speaking of Halloween the weather here wasn’t cold or overcast & none of the white stuff. Quite unusual Halloween up here in northern Saskatchewan. Back on the Island we normally had to deal with a maximum of 3 Halloween’ers at the door but here we were told to expect 100 or more kids seeking treats. Well we ran out of candy at about 85 kids … & coincidently we ran out of kids at about that very same time. Pheeeew! A friend said she buys for 240 trick or treaters but this year she only had around 80 as well. Every one of the kids, from the little ones right up the teenagers were incredibly polite & thanked us for the treats. Haven’t heard of a single case of vandalism here at all. Unlike what has gone on back home … Although these days who needs Halloween as an excuse, eh?

In all lots of fun for all including Molly & Chesney … lots of chances to bark & run around like crazy. :-)

Great health to you every day that I see you and every day that I don’t.
