Halloween is coming!

All the talk has been about the weather lately. I've lived here a long time. When my kids were young we always made sure that we bought them Halloween Costumes that could fit over winter gear.

When we did go Trick or Treating, we went to a neighborhood that the houses were close together and where most of them gave out treats. Usually that was on the military bases. They also had security everywhere and they handed out little flashlights to the kids.



Then we would go to the military air passanger terminal and they put the candy through the baggage x-ray machine.

We would then go home and then dad would go through all of the candy and throw away the ones with no wrappers and eat the ones he thought was defective.

A friend, Cindy pointed out the eagle while we were on Ft. Richardson on Tuesday. It was just sitting there checking things out. The weather was of no real concern to it, but you can see the storm brewing in the background.
