Halloween in Ridgewood, October 31, 2012

6:00 p.m. on a cold and drizzly Halloween, with a smokey start to a the night.

Not dark enough yet for the pumpkins.

Our first 2012 Trick or Treaters.

Finally, the fire becomes a robust blaze.

Between rain showers and costumed kids.

The pumpkins are starting to look a bit more intense.

Our bat.

Keeping warm and having a smoke bath.

Revelers!

Night after Halloween, but the pumpkins are back!
