But today is actually Halloween in Boston and these people know how to do it.  I mean as I have mentioned here many a time, Bostonians dress up in costume for the marathon, a pillow fight and let’s face it, the opening of an envelope.

Now do not at all get me wrong.  I love this about them.  That means to me that the Bostonians are willing to poke fun at themselves and be generally not serious at all, which is great by me.  So, this was Halloween in Salem, a super fun event involving costumes (of course) consumption of various fatty substances, rides and trips to haunted houses.  That part was the funn-est.  I haven’t been to a haunted house since I was 9.  That time I was really afraid of being scared.  Now I was afraid of falling down and breaking my glasses.  Piece of advice  — don’t get old.

Ah, the photos.  There are photos:
