Boo this & boo that. . .

So this is how it felt last year - I never want to forget the feeling! Especially now when it is only Spring and the Halloween 2010 season is months away.

24 hours ago - the forecast was for dismal rain, high winds and below freezing temps. BUT somehow Mother Nature smiled on us in Ohio - at least in our area and the weather turned out to be grand! I just got back in from a full - moon stroll out to the street to stand and take it all in. My witch costume is off - 150+ neighbors have devoured the hot dogs, cupcakes and drinks we served at our after TOT "Final Boo", everyone's gone home - and the house is now quiet.

We are exhausted - BUT - standing in front of our house - all I could think about was all of YOU!! This year - more than ever - this Forum has managed to bring our (me and MysterE) appreciation for Halloween to an all time high!! WE have met wonderful people through the Forum - made many friends - shared spectacular ideas - and realized that this time of year - especially Halloween - has brought more people together than I ever imagined.

We had some crazy things go terribly wrong. And some grand accomplishments too. Some hilarious - some really weird and positively maddening problems with our haunt and our big party will no doubt be in our "post-mortem" notes in the weeks to come. And since joining the Forum back in August, we've cursed, laughed, and cried right along with so many of you. But through it all - from folks like Larry the Master of all things HF to MsMeeples in the Netherlands - to Halloween Sucks in the UK - to Bozz just 45 minutes North of my own back door - it has been a global privilege to enjoy this Halloween thinking of all of you. I even wondered who was "Last" while TOT'ers were at my door - hanniibal? Norwayreaper? soni? or one of the dozens of others who kept me cheery during those long nights when I couldn't sleep and all I needed was a little mindless fun on the Forum.

Now I am simply basking in a beautiful full moon, and thinking of what I will read along with all of YOU when I wake up tomorrow:
365 Days until Halloween!!

THANKS A MILLION TO ALL OUR HALLOWEEN FORUM FRIENDS FOR MAKING 2009 SUCH A GRAND EXPERIENCE FOR ME AND MYSTERE
-- and you know I just have to say it - - - - - - - BOO AGAIN IN 2010!!
