It was a dark and stormy night...no, it really wasn't. It was about 70 degrees, with a warm wind, and a bright full moon. It was oddly warm, but it made for a pleasant trick-or-treating stroll. Since Aksel is getting over a cold, I was glad to send him out in mild weather. No snowsuits under the costumes this year! Davy Crockett quickly filled his side pouches with candy, and then moved on to filling the traditional plastic pumpkin bucket. There's a new version of the Davy Crockett song by They Might Be Giants. Take a listen.
Note Davy's shoes: Minnetonka Moccasins--perfect to complete the King of the Wild Frontier's costume.
Harry Potter made another appearance to the delight of all the boarding school students. Harry really fits in here!
And, after the annual faculty children photo opportunity, the birthday boy relaxed on a neighbor's rock wall while the boys gathered their goodies. Happy Halloween to all!

What great costumes! It looks like everyone had a Spooktacular time. The birthday boy looks happy and relaxed. Davy and Harry looked awesome too!
I'm jealous. I would die for a 70 degree day. We missed fall this year. It's been rainy, cold, and drab day after day. I don't know how we will possibly make it through winter when our Vitamin D reserves have already run out. It was always a dream to go trick-or-treating without a winter coat!
Happy Birthday Shawn! How old are you???
Shawn turned 34, officially entering his mid-30's. Wow.
The weather is oddly warm here, and it's definitely a case of grass is greener, Katy. Lachen and Aksel want the pond to freeze over for skating, and that may never happen this year. We're looking forward to chilly days in November in Mpls.
