I just can't get over Halloween here in the South. The weather is mild. The streets are inviting. And the tall towering 100 year old trees make for just enough mystery at night that you can sense the anticipation from each of the children as they approach the next house around the corner. Full-sized candy bars, fresh caramel dipped apples rolled in pecans, and witches and warlocks dancing to Karaoke machines hooked up to loud speakers blaring throughout the night. These are just some of the very unique things we saw this year for Halloween. Not that we are complaining mind you. Just pointing out the very unique way people here in the south celebrate Halloween.
Even as the kids get older they seem to enjoy dressing up in their favorite character costume and going door to door for candy. We met up with some Chevron friends who have two young boys who LOVE Kenny and Jessica. I didn't think they would ever slow down! And talk about candy! We'll be eating the stuff through the new year!
