On Friday night, Lyme Street was full of pirates and princesses, ghosts and goblins, and witches and wizards to name but a few of the myriad of costumes being worn by the hundreds of people out celebrating Halloween.  The photo above shows the view from inside the Fairfield-Sonn residence looking out to Lyme Street.  A constant stream of youngsters of all ages filed up to the doorway, said cheerfully, “Trick or Treat?”, and then — if so invited – removed some candy from the large basket, said their thank you’s, and traipsed back to the street.

Down the street a little way, the Mergy family was out in force in front of their home – the former catholic church – with an incredible display evoking angels, devils and the dead.

The display continued across both sides of their front yard.

Back up the street at the Lymes’ Youth Service Bureau, a party was held followed by a parade down Lyme Street behind a fire truck.  Inside, photos were taken including this delightful one of Katie Colburn and Max Garvin.

Here’s hoping all our readers had a Happy Halloween!
