So this weekend was a lot of fun, I've already told you all about the redneck haunted barn.... or did I? So after football on Friday we went over to my friend's house for some sloppy Joe's and Captain and Coke and then piled the sweaty kids into the car and headed over to the French District aka Cheviot. We had heard that there was a mini festival and a free haunted house for the kids. Well, when we pulled up there were about 20 people there and a total of maybe 16 or 17 teeth amongst them all. They did in fact have a haunted barn, which cost $2 to go through, a haunted hayride, which we never were able to find, and a haunted train, which was a lawn tractor pulling a train of cars made of carved out beer kegs mounted on skateboards. awesome!
We were barely even out of the car when we were approached by a lady and her 3 kids panhandling... for money to use for the hayride.... or so she said, but we think differently, as she kept walking over to this man wearing worn out sweats and a red sweatshirt that was at least 4 sizes too small for him. AND he was staggering so badly we aren't sure how he managed to stay upright. He was bumping into all kinds of stuff and just a total hot mess. We started to wager on whether it was alcohol or meth... we decided on meth and moved on to the ticket counter where they were selling the tickets to the "rides" for $1 each and beer for $2 each, only it mysteriously looked like pee. Now, I'm no beer snob, but I'm not drinking Burger Light, FLAT, with all the toothless wonders in Cheviot.
So we meandered back over to the barn, and of course I had to go through first. It was mildly retarted. The funny part was a mummy jumped out at Kari and she almost pissed herself. But I'd give it a C-.
Then the fun part.... back to Kari's for more Captain and Coke. mmmmmm I think I found a new love!
Time to work.... boo!
