The rest come after dark from TJ and pop out of vans like shiner circus clowns. In previous years we we hired a security guard for the street so we could be outside having fun with the kids. Too dangerous this year- so it's local kids only and close-up at dark.


In La Paz, they came to the door and said "I Want My Halloween"

Last year in San Ignacio there were a small group of older kids who almost knock me down and were grabbing the candy from me. so from now on, only in the Plaza where most of the kids are anyway will there be candy given out from me anyway. They really do love the trick or treating. They say here, Happy Halloween!



We all want a peaceful world, filled with love and laughter, but we fill ourselves with anger and hate trying to fiqure out how to achive it.
