Mucha Pazza, the punk marching band

The theme was "fire" this year, and this was my favorite float

Approaching

Detail w/flash. Hi guys!


Max and his Grinch


Doggy in the foreground is dressed as a lobster. The other two dogs have bibs.


Why Grandma, what a big tail you have!


pretty cool art car


I'm not sure what these guys were supposed to be, but they were also collecting for charity


Disney villains are the bestest!


THere was a whole group of TSA-ites. You can see the scanner up ahead, the "pilot" was swilling from a flask, and there was a guy wearing a painting-sign with "Ce n'est pas un bombe!"


another dragon float

Some of the other pics didn't come out - with all the movement and the flash issues.

Aw, I should've gone to the parade, and not wasted the evening vainly trying to give away candy. At one point Sharon told me I should call across the street to trick-or-treaters who were visiting our neighbors, and let them know we had bags of baby ruths, butterfingers and Reese's cups for the taking, but I preferred to keep a little dignity.

Fifteen minutes later I abandoned that, and tried: "Hey there! We may not have two eight-foot high inflatable ghost decorations, but we do have some candy over here!"

Followed by, "Um, why are you walking away so fast?"

Then I thought I'd put Leon out on the balcony in his little cat run to draw interest, but as it turned out, a dark gray cat in the nighttime doesn't stand out too well. At least he had a good time.

So, lots of leftovers. Sigh.

Some friends who recently moved in CA put a sign on their porch that read "Strangers With Candy" with an arrow pointing at the door. They had LOTS of trick-or-treaters

That'd be hilarious up to the moment when the police show up at my door. :D

The theme was actually dragons, unless they changed it in the last 2 weeks. darkwing830 used to babysit the owner of the art car, many-many moons ago. He stoped by our yard sale earlier this month and bought the weird cat-thing attached to his rear quarter panel in the pic.
