Halloween numbers are down this year.

28. My family and friends throw

a haunted cemetery maze in the back yard. The high school teachers work six weeks setting it up and being the costumed monsters on Halloween night. We take donations for the senior scholarship fund. Our street was like the county fair last night and we made $1600 for the kids. The teachers love frightening the bejeezus out of the kiddies and the kiddies love seeing their teachers dressed like a crazed butcher or a demented clown or mad scientist. The neighbors love it and all pitch in with help and candy and donated decorations. The police swing through once or twice and always stop and tell us how awesome and professional the makeshift cemetery looks, especially with the fog machine making the lights look very ghostly.

Sorry you didn’t have a fun night. That is what the holiday is about. And not one Trump mask in the bunch. I think people are getting really really sick of politics. They want their normal country back.
