Home for Halloween

After an early morning lift-off we arrived back in the crescent city around 1 pm, and ignoring for the moment the numerous voicemail messages, we headed down the street for a long walk. There seemed to be even more activity than when we had left, and when we returned The Wife decided to dig out some of the Halloween decorations an drun out to buy some candy. OK, so we were being optimistic. As it turned out, we never had any trick-or-treaters at the house, and soon after dark we went over to the neighbor's house with some cheese, wine and beer, and next thing we knew we had almost the entire block over there. It was really very nice to get together with thge other folks on Neron Place. I drank entirely too much wine and beer, not necessrily in that order, and am still somewhat under the influence. Suffice it to say that a good time was had by all, and that some are still having a good time as I write. Nonetheless, it is time for bed and I am hoping to get in a ride in the morning before we have to return to Jackson. It will be a miracle if I actually make it onto the bike in the morning. We shall see . . .
