63 and rainy. Clouds and showers all day.
Last night we decided to go to town to see what was happening with the "Spooktacular" event tbe town was sponsoring. The event was actually winding down after a day of chocolate vendors, games, contests, music, etc, but I was intrigued by the "dancing in tbe streets" that was to happen late in tbe evening. So I donned my witch hat, and off we went.
It was just plain fun. People in costumes were everywhere.
A DJ played dance music and explained the steps, and people of all ages were dancing together.
Even tbe Mayor was right in there and she had some good moves! The Mayor is the blonde in jeans,, and the lady in black is the Conventional and Visitors Bureau head. With my tricky knee all i could do was tap my feet and watch.
We strolled around a bit, and stopped in a downtown eatery that had an outdoor patio, thinking we would eat outside and enjoy people-watching, as there were so many people on costumes. But alas, the patio was closed, so we opted to go to our town's best Mexican restaurant, where staff and customers were dressed up and having a good time. Some good food and adult beverages made a perfect end to the evening.
Tonight was the broom dance! More about that in my next post.
It's good to break the routine and live it up a little.
ReplyDeleteFun! I don't think we have events like that around here. But then again, it's a bit chillier!
ReplyDeleteSounds like that everybody really enjoyed themselves. We have been having lots of rain too, I really miss sunshine. Winter is not here yet, but it's knocking on the door.
ReplyDeleteLooks like great fun. I like your witchy hat:) Rosie (corners)
