I was a  judge at the annual Maple Avenue Halloween Parade in Marietta on Monday, joined by Mayor Thunder Tumlin, Councilman Andy Morris and Marietta City Schools board member Allison Gruehn. Our task was nearly impossible, so fun and creative were the costumes.

I hate to single out just one but these young ladies, inspired by Steve Harvey's unfortunate Miss Universe flub, made us all laugh! The photo is by Marietta City Councilman Johnny Walker.
