Bob's Halloween Party

Bob Barr hosted a Halloween party at his home the Saturday before Halloween Night for all the AFSers. The costumes ranged from ravishingly beautiful to downright scary. A Jack-o-Lantern (pumpkin) decorating contest was also held. Many of us are still dazzled by the intricate design and we want to know the students' magical secrets. Bob's house has an airport runway (Polly Ranch Airport) between his back yard and the back yard of his neighbor. Most of his neighbors have hangers which house their own airplanes. They just land their plane on the runway and taxi over to their back yard to tie it down! Bob lives in Friendswood, and many astronauts live in the neighborhood. The commander of the International Space Station lives down the street from him! Now enjoy the images.....
