Halloween

Here in Kasigluk, everyone turns out for Halloween. On the Saturday before, we had a carnival at school (followed by the infamous "haunted hallway" and kids' games run by the junior high). There were silly games, folks in costumes, and loads of people. Qerrat' was dressed as a dalmation, and I was Cruella DeVil. Here are some pictures from the festivities: a crowd shot, mom and Bev dancing with an apple between their foreheads, and Qerrat' in costume & pj's. It was a crazed time, and we're still recovering from it, but the Halloween festivities are one of my favorite things we do at Akiuk. It's cool just to have fun and be with our neighbors.
