Hi


Seems like Halloween is over for the alleged adults of Chicago ... was in Loop Thursday Night with niece, Friday starting at Rock Bottom and Saturday in the Bucktown area each night with the flavor of Halloween but I would assess the costumes in general a mish mash of Salvation Army garb or not too different than day to day for Bucktown.  The second to last stop on Saturday was Lottie's which is a Wisconsin bar so stopped in there before the Wisconsin/Ohio State game ... the main bartender who had a Playboy bunny body was dressed in leather dominatrix outfit (may not have been a true Halloween costume as I trust she wears it other times) with some nice other costumese by the other bar tenders and wati people there ... on the walk home from there the Lincoln Park bus loads of drunk people wearing former high school clothes, band outfits and the like were a hoot to watch but the best costume was my two year old grandson who put on a hook hand (like Capt Hook) and had a saber not even in his costume saying Arrh Arrh with a big ass smile on him :)  There should be pictures displayed of him and Capt America on FB later today - today is the Kids Halloween - hope they have half as much fun as I did when I was young. I have bag of Kit Kats for kids trick or treating in the hood as I stroll home after work :)

Was concerned about you but had a sense that you were and are fine - glad to see your update on FB this AM; brought a BIG SMILE.  Trust everything back to normal as normal can be :)
