Joan, Love the Spooktacular event and the Misunderstood Animals

Can't wait to see your costume. Please share photos.

Hi Margaret~ I am off to find a costume for the Spooktacular -- I always have felt I am one of the misunderstood animals! I don't know which one to choose for this year (lol).

Joan--We have a Howl-O-Ween spectacular near our home that we took our boys to and they were able to learn about wolves, owls and hawks. It is a fun way to incorporate learning with a holiday. I would love to attend these...sounds like fun!

Joan sounds like an excellent event. Hope you have the time to make it. Halloween is one of my favortite holidays and I will try to make any event I can go to:)

Joan You have to have the best community blog I have ever seen. Many Kudos to you for being such a great ambassador for New Hampshire...

Joan, this is a neat idea. About time someone stuck up for all those little creatures that have been getting a bad rap for years on Halloween.

Teri~ That is great that you have a similar event. I think it is an awesome idea to incorporate Halloween and learning about the animals that get a bad rap! I can't wait to go!

Bill~ This looks like a fun event. I am going to try to rent my managers grand daughters for this one! It should be a lot of fun -- I am not sure they will like the creep crawleys.

Paul~ Thank you so much for the very nice complement. I am just learning the "art" of blogging so you words mean a lot. I enjoyed your post today.

George~ Between the animal that get a bad rap and the misunderstood animals, this should be quite an assortment of bugs, animals and other critters. It is going to be interesting to learn how these creature are an important part of the eco-system.

Looks like there will be lots of fun this Halloween in your area. Good info for consumers.

Gita ~ You are right -- this is a great way to introduce yourself to the community and let them know that you are up to speed on what is happening in the community and with regard to the real estate market in particular.

What a fun event! I'm sure that the kids just love it. I am not aware of anything like this here in our area. HAVE FUN!! GBU!

Hi Elizabeth -- These are going to be some great events. It is nice because the kids can have some fun and learn about these "misunderstood animals" and get up close and personal with animals that have a "bad rap"!. The story night should be a lot of fun for the older kids. This is a good way for families to interact, have fun and meet their neighbors. GBU my friend.

I went out and got my Halloween costume earlier today. I'm starting to enjoy this time of year now more than I did as a kid.

Joan...I have a French Maid apron if you want to borrow it! I also have an x rated one that came wrapped in brown paper!

OCT

JL -- halloween is a lot of fun. How is the weather in So. Carolina? I hope you and the kids have a great Halloween and enjoy the fall.

Joan ~ I think I recall seeing a picture of you in that French Maid apron -- It may work! I'll get those net stockings! On the other hand, perhaps I should get out of my comfort zone and try the one in the brown bag! (lol) -- now that could really be scary!

Joan, I thought that bats were getting a bad rap until one of my cats dragged one into my kitchen, and they are scary creatures!

Hi Joan,

Lots of activities going on in your area for Halloween, sounds like fun! Now about those costumes....;)

Patricia ~ I am with you on this one. I don't think I will ever love bats! I do know they are misunderstood creatures, but unfortunately they scare me to death~

Suzanne ~ I have had several people agree to loan me their costumes (hee hee). It is a lot of fun - this year I may be a vampire! Have a great weekend.

OCT

Hi Joan,

Thanks for letting your clients (and us) know what's going on in your neck of the woods for halloween. This is a great time of the year for kids and a great time for us to do some networking.

Have a great day
