A Happy Halloween Indeed...

So along with all the fall fun we've had out here, the days around Halloween actually brought some great news along with fun. Carrie found out that she got two part-time jobs at CSU--which is a definite blessing, especially right now! She has been working contacts since we got out here and things finally worked out thanks to a contact from her previous job at Opera New Jersey.

She'll be working in Marketing/PR for CSU's University Center for the Arts promoting activities for Music, Theatre, and Dance--right up her alley. Also, she'll be planning a 50th Anniversary event for the Communication Studies Dept. (taking place next school year). So now we're both employed and back to work out here int he Centennial State! Carrie will continue to teach voice lessons in Loveland and Fort Collins for now, hoping she'll have enough time to continue since she really enjoys teaching. She's enjoyed the chance to get us "settled" out here, but is happy to be back to work doing what she loves.

Halloween activities also included something new for us--the Fort Collins Zombie Crawl! The night included a $15 ticket for each person, which got you an item at 5 different stops (of the dozens of choices) on "the crawl"--so either a drink, a sandwich, candy, ice cream, etc. as long as you were dressed like a ZOMBIE! We were even joined by our Zobmie friends, Jill & Eric, from Laramie, WY. We went as zombie funeral mourners. Being new to the whole "Zombie thing," we did our best--you be the judge!
