Good morning George. Chester has had this event for a long time, was there a few years ago and was amazed by the masters doing their work. Hope there is a good turnout.

George: I have been to Chester once and was so enthralled by the friendliness of the people there. They would smile and wave. It was a small and friendly town.

Joe, Chester has a number of great events.  At Halloween time the line Main Street with carved pumpkins and have awards for different categories as well as a bunch of other contests.

Michael this is a great event for the kids, but parents have a blast as well.

Bob if I do eat to much chili along with others we will just get together and form a band :)

Maria it is that kind of town, and they have a bunch of great little places to eat.

Dorie this is an event I bet Hudson would have a blast at.

Joan I hope it is good also.  We had a snow storm Monday, one today, and another this weekend.  So maybe we will be all snowed out this week and it will be a nice weekend next week.

Ginny I hope don't mind if I share your dream with you :)

Larry feel free to come to CT and enjoy some of the chili with me :)

Lisa I am going to try, Chester is only 10 minutes from me.

Barbara yes I think so also.

Silvia, by this time into Winter we are use to the cold weather, but it would be nice if it warmed up a little for that day.
