Last night was the Local's parade.
We participated in a half hearted way as honorary locals.
There was a scramble for something to wear.
Fittingly, it started at the cemetery.
People threw beads and there were free drinks along the way.
Here is a sanitized version of the many people in costumes,
dedicated to my SIL who loves Fantasy Fest.
For those of you who have e-mailed me, the people who participate with a lack of clothing are every age and every size you can think of.
Yesterday we saw an older woman with a cane with nothing but body paint!
Part of me is happy that people are not stuck up on body image and the other part says "REALLY?"
The funniest thing is I can't remember the last time I got dressed up for Halloween. It was probably when I was a kid. I have friends that LOVE going to Halloween parties.
If you are dressing up, what is your theme?
Those are so funny and some very daring, lol.
ReplyDeleteI haven't dressed up in ages. Before kids we went to parties and dressed up and I did when I worked, but not since then.
