It truly is sad to be the only costume-ophile in this family. Very, very sad indeed.<br /><br />deborah-Sorry to hear about your husband's back. My kids wanted no part of Halloween..it's very disappointing.<br /><br />D. Jamie (to answer the question in your second post)- If you head from Mathews to Gloucester on Route 14, Church Hill is going to be on your left directly across the road from Ware Academy in Gloucester. I'll draw you a map/give you directions the next time you're here. It's right before you get to Ware Church, if that helps at all...<br /><br />AM-Yes, we must be kin. I have just vowed that this will be the last Halloween I do not dress up. How on Earth can you pass up a free ticket to dress as someone or something else? It's the one holiday where you are encouraged to be anything but yourself, and I, for one, am more than happy to oblige. <br /><br />Windsmurf - I'd say that counts as a ghost story, and I like your idea of dressing up to give away the candy. If there were more trick or treaters in my area, I'd definitely do that. Alas, we're lucky if we get one knock at the door. *sniff*<br /><br />DJ-Welcome to the family, your honorary crab hat awaits.<br /><br />Daryl-I'm sure youe were fashionably scary, and I mean that in only the best possible way.<br /><br />Dghawk-I completely agree. NEVER too old.<br /><br />Happy Halloween! I got all excited over the One and Only Group of Trick or Treaters that came by. My kids were shaking their heads in embarrassed amazement over my enthusiasm. I called them out to see the costumes and they wanted no part of it! I don't understand it at all. Sometimes I wonder if I'm just a perpetual child trapped in a middle-aged body...Chesapeake Bay Womanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07187804072769932131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-73790077412550308182011-10-31T15:29:11.161-04:002011-10-31T15:29:11.161-04:00Happy Halloween!

In regards to your mention of the cemeteries on your property and hoping to come across something more than chunks of stone while digging... I used to hope I'd find John Smith's body at Stingray Point (before I knew he hadn't died there- how disappointing).

I've never had a spooky ghost sighting, though one time while visiting my mother after my father had passed away, we were sitting at the kitchen table talking and my father walked in as he has thousands of times before and I didn't think it strange at the time until a couple of hours later when I remembered he had been gone for almost a year.

I think I had to throw her dinner at her a time or two cause she was screaming so loudly.Ann Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10313449241572578157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-87119392992773287392011-10-31T08:11:14.845-04:002011-10-31T08:11:14.845-04:00Thank you for the reading/research material today....Thank you for the reading/research material today. I'll enjoy reading about OHW. I've had my share of crazy experiences there and some interesting video and audio recordings as well.

Red must be your color when it comes to head-wear (crab hats).<br />It is sad when a costume-ophile Mom has kids who lose interest in dress up far too soon in life... I've been there! In the over-60 phase of life, costumes no longer thrill me any more (to the great relief of my sons.)<br />I still love ghost stories; thanks for sharing those.<br />LLCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2240067140694289750.post-72046262897742627082011-10-31T00:47:41.037-04:002011-10-31T00:47:41.037-04:00I wanted to go out today to buy a costume for the ...I wanted to go out today to buy a costume for the dog, but I got sick instead, and not by choice.<br />Dick had an orange file folder in his office, so I'm going to cut jack'o'lanterns out of it and put them on the front windows, and replace the blue curtains with black—black plastic garbage bags, but WTH.<br /><br />Kay, Alberta, Canada<br />An Unfittie’s Guide to Adventurous TravelKay L.
