Halloween 2020 A Total Bust

Normally our street is full of kids for Halloween.  Tons of kids come by, going door-to-door for candy, cute as heck in their costumes and having a ball.

Our kids decided to convert Abby's car into a Trunk 'N' Treat special at the bottom of the driveway, complete with decorations, flashing lights and a ton of candy ready to be disbursed.

We setup a warming station for adults at the top of the Driveway of Doom™ with a fire-pit lit, hot dogs ready to go, and some bourbon to let parents keep their steam uop walking around the neighborhood.  We had a friend came by and she and Tash spent tiome catching up on things.

From 6pm-8pm all of 4 kids showed up.  Normally there's that many by 6:01 pm.

Helluva ruined Halloween from parents being made to be fearful of their own shadows and running scared of having their kids spaced out outdoors to have fun and get candy. 

Quite disappointing all around and rather sad.

Ok, Who had Alligators In Michigan For 2020?

Covid, Murder Hornets,  EEE infected mosquitos, Cicada invasion, and now an Alligator has allegedly been spotted in Macomb County.

The Detroit News: Macomb Co. Animal Control investigates gator sightings in Clinton River

Macomb County Animal Control is investigating reports a critter that may be an alligator or a crocodile has been spotted in the Clinton River in Harrison Township, officials said Tuesday.

Most likely this is the result of some idiot who had an exotic pet that got too big, who then had the brilliant idea of releasing it into the wild. 

But, with 2020 being what it is, a full-on Alligator invasion of our fair peninsula cannot be ruled out.
