All Hallowed Evening
Whether you celebrate Celtic New Year’s Eve [Samhain], the evening before All Saints Day [Halloween], or the anniversary of the posting of Martin Luther’s Ninety-Five Theses in 1517 [Reformation Day], have a happy one.
Wikipedia does its normally thorough job of covering all of the bases on the holidays that share October 31st.
These are my remembrances of a traditional American Halloween.
Locally we are having preemptive lawn drowning to prevent people at the ‘Autumn Festival’ from parking on our grass.

excise!!!!! love those evil eyes.
I stayed out of circulation for Halloween, having a house full of black cats; fortunately neighbors all around me took up the slack.
hope yours went well.
Mine went non-existent with the bogus “harvest festival” across the street aided and abetted by the Sheriff deputies directing traffic. I buy candy that I have seen friends eat so I can get rid of it when no kids show up.
