The 304th day of 2017 was Halloween!! And 10/31/17 was a great Halloween at that! Got to leave work early to see my daughter's Field Hockey Playoff Game (loss, sob, great season, Panthers!) and then got to hand out candy to the kids of Oaklyn for the afternoon/evening and then spend the evening with the family watching Hocus Pocus (not as good as I originally remembered (but Amok, Amok, Amok, Amok) and carving pumpkins and watching the World Series. Halloween is an inspirational holiday for me. Not because it celebrates ghouls or the occult or anything like that. No, I love the sense of community as people leave work early to be home to hand out candy; as people set up grills on their front lawn and handout hot dogs and waters; as kids are smiling from ear to ear; as we meet neighbors we have not yet met before. Halloween can bring out the best in a lot of people, and I am inspired to keep fostering that feeling in my town. For my song today, I picked a song that fits both Halloween AND the World Series! A MJ classic!
