I am the best costume of all

After writing my column about dressing up for Halloween, I forgot one major thing this Halloween – to dress up.Frankly, I was busy doing video downtown half the day, getting footage of hundreds of trick-or-treaters who swarmed McMinnville all day Monday, filling their bags with candy and other sugar-laden items that I’m sure kept them awake into the wee hours Tuesday. I’m still of the opinion Tuesday should be a holiday, or at least a late start day in the school system so young kids can sleep off the sugar high and the older kids can take their time rolling yards on Halloween night. By the way, you can see the video of the downtown trick-or-treat frenzy at www.southernstandard.com in the multimedia section or on our Facebook page.I was also busy Halloween, taking my youngest son Henry trick-or-treating downtown.
