Happy Halloween

Okay, so we're old folks. It's only 10:30 and Ross and I are ready to call it a night. Just didn't get that into the spirit of the evening. Maybe it was too much crowd and not enough trick or treat. I thought I should share our costumes before crawling into bed:

That was a lot of layers to don. Underneath it all, I did have on the red and black striped stockings, red bloomers and a second corset. At the very least there was a hint of a breeze tonight. Ross, on the other hand...well it may look like fewer clothes wool pants and a wig are hardly a treat in Hawaii.

We were recognized by a few. Ross usually identified first and then I by association. We had entered a contest as well, but due to another contestant not paying attention, we were separated during the line up and the effect was lost. C'est la vie. (To give you a hint of what we were up against, the people's choice award was between an 8 year old mime and Borat complete with live chicken....) Still, I am immensely proud of the way we looked. And posing for a few photos on Halloween by appreciative partiers is always a bit of a thrill.
