Hey Jazz - that white squirrel you "liked" is an unofficial U of L mascot. There are several on campus - they are not albino, it's a gene thing - they've been on campus for more than 50 years. DS#1 finally saw one last week.
The center of the storm is supposed to be parked right over my house all day Wednesday 
I hope it's lost a lot of Uhmph by then!! We spent some time today pruning trees and cutting down a couple rotten ones just in case it increases our chances of keeping the power on
But yeah, not looking good for trick or treat

You should hook up with the neighbors and agree to reschedule TOT for Fri or Sat!!
when we lived in Marietta (OH) TOT was always the Saturday before Halloween - unless the 31st was actually ON Saturday. I've been enjoying pictures this evening as a couple of friends post on FB
I lived in Columbus OH from 1974 til 1987!
LOl - We're the neighborhood people bring their kids in from the country to TOT. Well, not as much since the subdivision next door took off - it's bigger with better candy! Heck, DS#3 (12) is going TOT in the other subdivision with his friends who live there. #2 is going to chaperone them (he's 15 and too old to TOT)
I will (weather permitting) be sitting in the neighbor's drive way, eating chili and enjoying a firepit while the kids hit out buckets and bowls for candy. I'm in cu-de-sac with 8 houses - so we just camp at the one with the flat driveway and set up a pot luck in her garage. This year will be odd, since 1 couple has now divorced (final yesterday) and He is not on speaking terms with 1 of the other neighbors (he's a douche) (wonder if that passes Hal the editor's cursing filter)
Fun times in the burbs. lol
DH is not happy to miss Halloween. He knows #3's TOT days are limited. Watching them grow up is bitter sweet when you KNOW some of the childhood stuff is almost over.
I don't even want to know what #1 is doing...he claims he's going to be studying and doing endless physics homework.
He called - actually CALLED on the phone - the 1st time since he left in August...to thank me for his Halloween box o'goodies. Score one for mom!

I grew up in Cincy - we always had TOT ON Halloween, and when we lived in Paducah and West Lafayette. Marietta threw us with that one!
Be glad you're not here now. The political commercials are non-stop. the presidential campign stops are non-stop. And since I live close to CVG - the annoying road blocks when one of them are in town is a REAL PITA!
Though getting to see Air force One fly over is pretty cool.
#2's school is 2 miles from the back end of the airport...fun times leaving school and passing Co sheriff and county sheriff and our city cops...all sitting around waiting to hold traffic....though we did have one stop a guy loaded for bear a couple of weeks ago.

When Clinton was president he came to Philly - a lot! I hear that on the road closures! I swear he was here every few weeks - he's a foody (among other less savory things)
Someone needs to have a chat with sandy. Final walkthtough on the lake camp is due tomorrow evening, with closing tues afternoon
