This is just a quick photo album, mostly.
Every year, the 900-1000 block of Cambridge Avenue gathers on "The Commons" on Halloween to offer treats to neighbors, both kids and adults. Here is 2017.
Marianne's mom joined us and enjoyed everything, including the Facetime call from great grandkids Ava and Sam, as they started their hunt down in the Bay Area.
There
were a couple of dozen neighbors enjoying the pot luck meal, the
animated conversations, and visiting babies. This may have been the
largest Cambridge event of the year!
Of course, the main event was the parade of costumed kids, two from our street and dozens from who-knows-where.
The
kids kept coming, into the dark, managing to gobble up ALL the candy on
offer. I guess that is the sign of a successful Cambridge Avenue
Halloween.Now everyone can face the 2017 Holidays with plenty of sugar energy.
Next? I do not know.
