Halloween

It was a great day and night.  We got to sleep in and spend the day as we wished. 

Janet’s big project was carving pumpkins to enter into the pumpkin carving contest.  She carved one for the SAIL Fleet using the SAIL logo and the burgee design.  She also made a “spooky” one for “Foreign Affair”.  The winning pumpkin was a sentimental favorite:  Mr. Grinch.

The marina brought in a really good band and awarded some great prizes for various reasons:  best costume, best jack-o-lantern, etc.  The partying continued until mid-night. 

The “Foreign Affair” crew slipped away to watch the World Series at a bar a few blocks down the street from the marina.  People in Oriental are either not interested in the World Series or cheer for the Mets.
