This is a great thread. It brought back a memory of a fun time in my life. It wasn't Halloween, but is was a barn party.
A bit of background first. I have a really good friend that has the same kinda humor I do. OH the practical jokes we would pull on people and the crazy things we would do to get people to laugh and have fun. So this barn party was for our worship pastor and his wife. A lot of people from the church had put a lot of sweat and time into helping them build this barn, so they wanted to throw a party to thank everyone. They told everyone it was a western ho down so dress up western. They had a band coming to play and the whole works. So my friend and I decided we would "dress up western" and have a little fun with the whole thing. We got some of the band members in on our plan as well. So the night of the party the two of us get together and get dressed up then arrive to the party fashionably late. The band was playing and people were having a good time and in we walk. We put on a show let me tell you. My friend was the spitt"n image of Loretta Lynn and me....well I was the spitt'n image of Dolly Parton. Yes...I am tell'n you now, I can fill the....well....ummm..."shoes" of dolly quite well. To the shock, amazement, and pleasure of all, we headed right up to the stage and gave them all a little Loretta and Dolly concert. It took them to the end of our third song to finally figure out who their mystery guests were. Man that was fun!
Thanks for the memory! PH
