And here's the inside (pay no attention to the crap stuff on the stairs ::) ):

Great photos, George!

Elmore, I hope you and the kitties are feeling better by now.

I am, thanks. My stomach has settled down, and Thatch actually came out of the cat tree to eat a little seafood medley.

Very good news on both counts!

TOD: We get a few trick or treaters, not as many as when we moved in, so we're ready for them. I dress up as Steve Jobs (black mock turtleneck, blue jeans, New Balance shoes) but nobody gets the joke except me.

One Halloween, when I was living in the first apartment I lived in after moving out from my parents, I wore a Hawaiian shirt, plaid shorts, a straw fedora hat and I had my Polaroid camera (with many film cartridges).  I was a tourist!  I took pictures of the kids and, in addition to the requisite candy, I gave the kids the Polaroid pictures of them in their costumes!  They loved it!

The scariest trick or treater was the kid a couple years ago who said, "I'm here to discuss your car's extended warranty." I told him to take as much candy as he wanted.

That's funny!! :))

Definitely!  And since it was an apartment complex just a couple of blocks from the Tumwater police, everyone felt pretty safe.

Kids will be in costume for school. I have one bumblebee and one Link. Link is a character from the Zelda video games.

Not Link from The Mod Squad?

My grandson is also dressed as Link from the Legend of Zelda

I think these are probably the last cookies I am going to decorate. I have never been good at it, and it hurts my back after a while. The kids do love the cookies; adults won't take them.

They look amazing. I would take one…or seven!

That's really cool, Rodzinski!  And not to brag, but did your kid have a Legend of Zelda shield backpack with a sword, like mine? ;D

George if you ever feel the need to dispose of that Zelda backpack, reach out to me.

My favorite Disney cartoon for Halloween:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSkXw1bk_NE

This cartoon is really 1952, not 1956.

I guess the Headless Horseman counts, too!

That was fun!

One of the next suggested videos was this:

I love this kind of stuff! ;D

I have an ootleg-bay audio recording of a Japanese production of Pacific Overtures, a Swedish radio broadcast of A Little Night Music, and the French DVD release of the movie version of The Phantom of the Opera, which has, if I remember correctly,  the only French language version of the score.  There has never been (so far as I know, at least), a French production that has recorded a French language cast album.

No candy in the house, but it was a satisfying substitute.
