Fall Fun

What good times do you remember about Fall?

One thing that always comes to mind is the grade-school carnivals. The games and food! Cake walks was the best of both.

Another was hayrides. If it was through school or school "club" it was almost always held at Golf Acres.

"Golf Acres"....A Blast from the Past.....One of the Hayrides we had (Church Sponsored) a guy fell off the trailer and the trailer drug him about 1/2 mile before anyone noticed. He was a very large guy and instead on going over him the Front wheels just Drug him...Kind of a "Bummer" Hay ride that time...

Caramel Apples. Painting jack o lanterns (sometimes we carved them but I liked to paint them with the kids). I used to like to go to the craft show at OKCCC and get Christmas ornaments for the each of the kids. All kinds of memories.

fresh popcorn balls. I don't think anyone makes them anymore. Bobbing for apples.

When I was a little kid, up to the second grade maybe, Mom always burned a cork and gave my brother and I black faces.

Once I remember her using the cork to make us look like we had a beard and we went as hobo's.
