HALLOWEEN BESTS

Best pumpkin: “STATE CHAMPS” carved by our high school team’s All-State pitcher.

Best trick-or-treater conveyance: a lawn tractor and trailer arrived with all kinds of decorations and lights, and a bunch of beaming kids hopped off the back of this Halloween hayrack ride.

Best kid costume: a little boy was in a homemade winged dragon costume in a shimmering green fabric that a mom or grandma must have put 100 hours into making.

Best adult costume: a friend is a teacher, and the kids at her school weren’t allowed to dress up this year for some strange reason, but the teachers were; one of her co-workers came as “The Unhappy Camper,” with torn jeans, burnt marshmallows in her hair, and a snake wrapped around her leg . . . she didn’t need a Hershey bar in her trick-or-treat bag; she needed a margarita.
