In this photo taken with my iPhone 4S, you can see a typical Halloween at my Uncle’s nearby house. We literally have to herd people into lines on his driveway because he gives away free sweatshirts instead of candy and people go M.A.D. for them. They aren’t even plain sweatshirts- they have an ad for his business on them! It’s honestly the craziest thing!
Phoneography Challenge: My Neighborhood
Author: Rocky
For more than a decade, I have been documenting my misadventures on The Rocky Safari while exploring destinations all around the world. I may be an introvert at heart, but I love stepping outside of my comfort zone. Thanks to numerous solo travel adventures, I've learned to embrace long-term travel as a lifestyle. Now my primary goal is to help you explore unusual places, travel longer, and design a remote lifestyle.
because he gives away free sweatshirts…
Yup- all that because of free sweatshirts. Isn’t that crazy!?
This is so fascinating to me! Out of all the photographs of neighborhoods, this one really got me to stop and think. I must ask, “how long has he been doing this?”, because it clearly looks like the sweatshirt line-up has become a neighborhood tradition. Your uncle needs to invest in some serious, Disneyland-style, line ropes. Thank you for sharing and tell us more!
Oh, it’s quite the neighborhood tradition alright! It’s like this year after year and it’s still growing. I would say he has been doing it for maybe ten years or so. Hahaha I’ll let him know- your comment will make his day! 😀
