October 31: Halloween Fun on Petaluma D Street

You won't really see this one on anyone elses event listings. From an early age my parents would take my sibilings and I to downtown D Street in Petaluma to go trick-or-treating. There are usually hundreds of people out on the street getting their treats and checking out the houses that really decorate it up for the occassion. Its really fun and experience worth going to at least once.
