Gio's Ranch Halloween
October 31, 2007
Gio put on his scarecrow
costume at home and then went with Norm
to M-Bar-C Horse Ranch about 3 miles down our road by Mutiny Bay.
Later, John, Kimmer, Lee, and Jan went too.
The ranch is a non-profit horse ranch for kids of Puget Sound to
enjoy.
It has horses to ride and a small western town to explore.
John has been volunteering there lately to install a new stove.

made for them
in our driveway before going to the ranch.

John Smith)
The western town was
decorated for Halloween.

John finished up his installation of a stove
in the ranch house.

Gio most enjoyed the talking skull inside the
Jail
at the corner of Mane and Horse Shoe streets.
A pirate ghost talked to Gio in the Post
Office;
A skeleton got a haircut in the Barbershop;
and there was a ghost in the Bank.
The Saloon had big spiderwebs inside and a
giant spider outside.
There was a pumkin patch beside the haunted
house.
Ranch Manager Bill confered with the witch
before she invited Gio into her haunted home.
Gio met many scary-looking "Spooks"
inside the house
who were really friendly volunteers mostly from
NAS Whidbey.
