Some of the other, later arriving, sites you can see around local establishments include:
— The Village Liquor Store in North Hudson suggests on their sign that they are the place to go for “Halloween boos.”
— The big moose head high up above the fireplace at, of course the Smilin’ Moose, is covered by a large sheeted ghost, and I’m assuming that means this actually Minnesotan beast is actually extinct.
— “Are you gonna go (carving) my way …” A youngster gained an award for crafting an image of rocker Lenny Kravitz out of a pumpkin, and that led to a part-time job offer in design, says a relative here from Ohio.
— A local server with a five-year-old who I’ve known for years and who still likes to go out when she can said because of his age they would “be tricking,” when I thought she had stated they’d actually “be retreating” from the holiday and its revelry. That just didn’t sound right, since the conversation was at the curved end of the bar at Dick’s.
— The band at Dick’s, one of many playing around the area on Saturday, will take on a different tack as far as time. The group The Way Out will perform from 7-11 p.m., it says on the big annoucement board at Dick’s. Usual band times, more typically on a Friday, have been 6-9 p.m.
