Last night was Beggar's Night in the big Metropolis of Panora. The folks went all out decorating: a mini cemetary, motion activated skeletons and witches. Monster eyes blinking in the trees, topiaries, jack-o-lanterns. And lots of creepy crawlys. Dad has a fountain in the front yard rigged up inside an old cast-iron cauldren and put a light up fog-maker in it. Mom was dressed as a witch, big pointy hat, ungly nose, black cape, bad make-up job. Dad was creepy. To get an idea of his mask…. Think George Carlin, 15 years in the grave. He had a BIG flannel shirt stuffed with a pillow and baggy, tattered jean with work boots. Any kid that came up and told a joke got a King Size Snickers bar. No jokes the got a "fun size" Snickers and had to pet his dead rat, Willard. It was really funny. The cool and creepy thing about last night was how dad knew what I was going to do without me telling him, or him asking. I was wandering around the the yard for the first 20 minutes or so, as Jason: Big black boots, cover-alls, work gloves, hockey mask and a BIG rusty Corn knife. I bought a Deer hunter's camo hood thing so the people couldn't see my eyes under the mask. Dad had a big tree stump and two steel fens posts set up. So as it started to get dark, I stood motionless on the stump with my arms draped over the fence posts grasping my machete. Everyone that walked by complemented Dad on his building skills for the "scary guy" by the tree. I lost count of the number parents I scared the B'jesus out of. It was a blast. Junior high and HS kids and lots of parents. LOTS! The best one of the night… little boy dressed as my favorite hero, WOLVERINE, wandered over to me at his father's urging. He couldn't have been more than 5. I slowly turned and looked down at him and just stared at eachother. And in the cutest little squeaky voice he says Wolvie's catch phrase, "Hey, Bub. Want some candy?" I fell off the stump laughing. The folks had enuff treats for 275 trickers. The festivities were 6-8pm, we ran out at 7:30. dad turned away around 40 kids in that last half hour

That sounds like a blast!  I do miss that living in the country. For some reason a half mile lane surrounded by high corn fields seems to deter the little ones from venturing out our way.
