Ghosts and goblins…pumpkins and princesses…angels and all
sorts of animals – I’ve seen them all tonight while handing out candy to all
the trick-or-treaters of Bucklin!
I have so many Halloween memories growing up. As a young
child, my mother dressed me in all sorts of costumes which ranged from anywhere
from a duck to clown to an old lady and a bunch of my friends would load up in
the car and go around town.
No matter how many houses we had to visit, there
was a guaranteed two stops every year – Frank and Evangeline Fletcher’s, where
Frank would take a picture of each and every trick-or-treater that visited, and
Barb Hanson’s, who gave out the best popcorn balls one could imagine!
As I got a bit older my trick-or treating days slowed and my
memories are filled with having water fights with the cops and perhaps moving a
car or two. There may have been a few windows soaped and some toilet paper
tossed around as well, but one must not disclose everything…
Now-a-days, my Halloween nights are quite different from
what they used to be. I help hand out candy and wait for my three little
trick-or-treaters to make their way over here!
Eli - the Cutest Pumpkin there is! |
Karlee and Jake - the Best Doctor and Patient ever! |
