I wore my dad's fire boots, one of his Pendelton shirts and messed up my face with a piece of charcoal.<br /><br />One time I wore his bunker gear (helmet, fire boots and jacket), but it was hot and it was heavy.

When I was a teen it was Halloween for the dress up factor and being able to let my freak flag fly and not get made fun of for it. Now it is Thanksgiving that I love for it's simplicity. It has all the good parts of Christmas without all the gift giving issues. I am not good at wrapping and I am even worse at shopping.
