Shhhhhh! I can't talk too loud or they'll hear me.
We'll wait 'til Teri and Steve turn off their lights and go into their bedroom. Once they're settled in we'll sneak up and soap they're windows and toilet paper the trees. Then once they're asleep, we'll bring all the cars up to the front of their house and hit the horns all at once, and yell surprise.
DaddySS you bring the soap. Thom, you and ChrisL bring your left over candy for the party afterwards. Hawkeye, you bring the toilet paper for the trees. PoSSum, you pick up the JR and the western folk on the way. Joey, don't forgetabout the pink cow robe, and pick up Fbodfather on your way. Dan you better hitch a ride with someone else so you can bring back the '69.
Remember it's a surprise, so don't tell Teri & Steve. And, oh ya, set your radio frequency to 3.8.
Now wouldn't it be great if we could all meet up again that easily? Have a happy Halloween, everyone!

Great plan. We can bring lots of leftover candy too. I didn't read to "Nibs" box right so we have 3 boxes full to use up. We expected 125 kids based on what the neighbors told us ... we got 25.
BTW ... I'm not stopping by to get J.R. you know how far out of the way that is for me? I'll bring Bob, Curtis and Jaxon though. Maybe Tim as well, he really wants to see Steve's setup and will probably roll up his sleeves and help with getting the '69 done.
You are right though, wish it was that easy. This is going to be a really long winter, especially considering that I may not make it to a spring/early summer event in '03. We'll be using our first holiday allotment to go to our nephews wedding in Edmonton.
Happy All Saints Day.

HHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY!!! Wait a minute............what did we do? Hey, our lights were on, we were up, and had candy anyway! Not one kid came to the house! Sounds like a good plan. I just wish it was so easy. at least we get to keep in touch with each other. We wont get to see most of you until BG again! Not doing Bragg-smith this year either! bummer (no money!). I am already looking to driving to BG again, but this time we will be driving the 68!!!! I havent driven that car once, except about two weeks ago, for 1 1/2 years! I miss it!

Yeah, the pressure got to me. I had Tootsie Pops and snack boxes of fruit ready. Not one single kid (or grown-up) came to the door again this year.
It sure would have been fun if the rest of you had shown up though!
Had you timed it right, you could have caught us in the middle of a before bedtime soak in the hot tub!
