We took The Robot and a bunch of high school kids to the local Halloween Costume Contest and Parade. We made them decorate the robot and get all dressed up and give away candy (oh the hardship!)

And Dude was busy getting pix of ginormous bees and wee stegosauruses (stegosauri?) and I run over to interrupt him:  Did you get those hats??

Dude:  What hats?

Me: The matching black and yellow hats – there were three: mom, dad and a baby. Did you get it?

Dude:  /blank face

Of course you would take pictures of random strangers in matching hand knit hats. Right?

 

They were all from Cascade 220, given away at one of the Stitches events, after the Steeler win. (Mr Google tells me that this would be October 2009, Stitches was in Hartford CT so that would be Stitches East.)

Really - there must be more trick-or-treaters. There's too much candy left.

p.s. Also – the 15 year old who painted that sign? Free hand. With a three inch brush.
