Coffee truly is the nectar of the gods, or at least the Flash.

For those who haven’t heard, I’m now an hourly employee again. Today I don’t have to be into work until 10 am. So, what better thing to do than go to Coffee Zone, set down, and enjoy a cup of coffee. Coffee Zone also has free wireless internet (WiFi) which means I can use this time to surf the web or post on my blog. I could get into this lifestyle

Last night we went trick-or-treating downtown in The District. Eilish, Elora, and Rowen transformed into their alter-egos with an extra layer of clothes under their costumes to ward off the cold. We then set off, going store to store, filling their candy bags. We actually ran into Dr. Vandover, the principal at Lee, at the new tea house. She told the kids how nice they looked. The cold started nipping at the kids noses and ears so we called it a successful night after about an hour. Eilish counted her haul at about 100 pieces. I wonder how many I can throw away at a time without her noticing?

Well, the coffee is gone and I have a few things to do before I head into work. I will post again soon.

Good Day and Good Cheer,
Marty

Coffee + Wifi is bliss! I went trick or treating last night, but all the bartender would give me was beer. And it wasn't even free! :)

Mark-The real question is what was your costume?

Marty, I have so enjoyed reading your blog, it made me cry, and smile too. You didn't tell us what the kids were for Halloween!
Your cousin, Sheryl

Hi Marty,
Did you know that Chris did a watercolor of the Roberts House? I'm using it for the cover on our tour ticket this year. Its very good.

Sue- it was nice talking to you tonight. If i remember correctly, I think it took Christa a couple of tries at that pictures before she was happy with it.

Sheryl-Thanks for taking the time to read my blog.

I'm planning on posting some pictures of the kids later. Eilish wore an orange and black witch costume, Elora chose a black and purple "bat princess" costume, and Rowen was Spiderman with yellow rain boots.

Hi Marty,

I was a super villan for halloween. Too many people were superman, I had to balance it out.

Irish- can you be kind enough to give us your name, your profile doesn't give us much information.
