No Place Like Home

It is Halloween and I suppose that would be a blogging occaision. My followers show no mercy when I communicate via the old fashioned way: email - citing "That should have been a blog!"

Today, I went to get a haircut where most emplyees were in full costume. Glennis, who cut my hair, was dressed in a blue plaid Princess Diana Scotish kilt and a tiara. I am not sure that is a costume since she is from Scotland and grew up wearing the plaid. I went as an unshaven weekend warrior. My companions, however, were in full costume. Bonnie, Champ, Luc, and Jac arrived via the yellow brick road as Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion. My bride brought the Wizard of Oz theme back from the Spring Valley Days when Chelsea, Kelly, Kacie and Charlie were the same characters respectively. Now they are all scattered in Texas, Oklahoma, California, and Ireland. The ones who strayed to far away do not get to test the brand new Blue Bell flavor I tested today - Mexican Praline. Vanilla Ice Cream with Mexican Praline Candy, Pecans, and Praline Sauce. It is worth clicking your heels together and saying over and over "There is no place like home, there is no place like home............ Perhaps you will wake up in Texas on Halloween night with a bowl of Blue Bell.
