Happy Halloween people!!

 

My first Halloween and it was fun. My first earthquake and it was scary.

 

Ok .. I experienced my first earthquake on Oct 30, 2007 at 8:04 PM.

 

I did not realize what was happening till my landlady exclaimed "Kalyan, Its an earthquake!"

 

I am happy it did not cause any serious damage. But I really don't want to be around when a big one comes knocking. It is no longer an "If", just "when".

 

I accompanied one of my friends to his colleagues home for a nice dinner and an evening of "Trick or Treat" with the kids. I was so impressed by the extent of trouble some families went through to decorate the houses and entertain the kids. I definitely will decorate extensively when I do get in to a home . It sure looks like fun!!

 

Well, this was in Castro valley. I like the place .. nice small town, just one High School. The church had a nice community event.

 

I am thankful to my friend, Shane, and his friend for inviting me to share the dinner and fun with them.

 

I hope all of you had fun too!
