Good morning everyboomie.
Welcome to your weekend!!
Hey have any of you seen the petition to move Halloween to the last Saturday in October? That would have been today.
Thousands of people have signed it, but some people just want to leave Halloween on the 31st, and do trick-or-treating on the Saturday before.
I don't really care. I don't get trick-or-treaters anyway.
I'll bet I know someone who would rather cancel the whole affair though.
I may go to the sod farm today if my back is back......enough.

Have a happy day everyone. LOOK, a copacornia.....I mean a Copacabana
