Candy and telescopes
 |
 |
So it’s Halloween night. Lucinda and Mommy and Aunt Maggi got dressed up in their costumes and went out with some of the neighborhood kids. They had a good haul. Aunt Maggi even had to come back th the house to get some bigger bags so they could carry all the candy.
Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I did my usual thing. I set up my telescope in the driveway and handed out candy. This year was good, since Mars is well-placed in the evening right now. I’ve been doing the ‘have some candy and look through the telescope’ thing since 1998, and it’s taken on a life of its own. A lot of the kids and their parents remember me and make a point to stop by our house so they can look.
It was a fun evening for all of us.

Lucinda & “Mom” Very cool information!! And really neat shots.
I’m trying to locate where a bridge (equestrian style) may have crossed an arroyo near you guys.
If you are interested reply back and I will provide snippets from an old photo.
Thanks
