Actually it was Last Week:
Six inches of snow
Heavy wet snow on leafy branches caused quite a problem. They closed down the CSU oval because of downed trees and power was cut off for several hours in Old Town. The snow on the street melted by mid-day. Some of our trees in the back yard are not as tall as they once were ;-(
Pumpkin carving at Mindy and Tom’s
It’s what you do near the end of October. The Day of the Dead is tomorrow and I still haven’t got my alter built. But we had costumes.

Besides watching the snow melt, there were a number of opportunities to go someplace in costume. The Holler!Ween event the previous week got us in the mood!
The “Meatloaf” part
As Eddie at the Rocky Horror Show musical wearing this really cool leather jacket I bought at the Goodwill store for $14. They also had this wonderful mullet wig or only $2.
Rocky Horror cast and musicians
This was very well directed and the actors were incredible. The members in the audience were not half bad either!
Jeanne and Jim
After the show we stopped in at Cafe Vino for some tapas and drinks with some friends.
Lastly, the Haunted Organs this year
At the UCA for the late night halloween organ extravaganza. Kyung-Soon Cho and Bobbie Mielke just finighed Franck’s Prelude, Fugue and Variation for organ and piano. As last year, Sam Dawson began the show with Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D Minor.
Zombies by evening
Well, it’s November now. Time to store the costumes, makeup and Halloween decorations… Maybe I won’t put away the mullet wig just yet!
