Today is Halloween, a holiday very popular not only with kids, but these days, with adults, too. Here in Denver the big thing seems to be haunted houses, where the object is to scare the living hell out of you. For a price, of course. Looking on the internet, there seems to be dozens of these places around town. And, in addition to a lot of guided ghost tours, this being Denver and all, there are also several "Boos and Brews Haunted Pub Crawls," too. To me, it all seems pretty tiring, not to mention cold out there (I am, after all, feeling damn old these days). In my opinion, it would be best to do all your trick or treating down in Florida, where I took the photograph above years ago of my sister Susan and mother Mary at an arts and crafts show at Riverside Park, in Vero Beach. And no, we did not buy those two ghosts seen in the photograph. They actually wanted money for them. Go figure.
