So we haven’t even had our [SE Michigan Dopefest](SE Michigan Dopefest) yet (this weekend, woo-hoo!)

But I’m already up for starting to discuss Halloween.

I offer my place, on the west side of Cleveland, near Kamm’s Corners.

I’m thinking Saturday the 30th of October, that way we can have a fire in the front yard and scare the little trick-or-treaters.

What say you?

I may just check it out. Trips down to Cleveland for me are tax-deductible, as long as I check out my house in South Euclid.

Can I bring my mutt? I drove RTA bus and I forgot the exact count but about a dozen eggs hit the bus in two hours, Buckeye-Woodland area. RTA actually can request a doctor’s excuse for any call-off on Halloween.

I can barely make out what you’re asking but if you wanted to bring a dog, can he be parked in my fenced-in backyard ? My best friend is allergic.

That would make the evening worthwhile. Hope you can. Email Brian about cheap flights. He’s a travel agent. :eek:

Good point :smack: . I can’t seem to find anything in the period for less than €600. What’s the most frustrating is booking the same journey the other way around from the US is substantially cheaper. ☹

You can count on at least five of us, maybe 7-10. I think we’ve had a record of 11-12. Treat this as a staycation.
