Goodnight Raleigh - a look at the art, architecture, history, and people of the city at night

Haunted Hillsborough Hike ’07, Part I

This costume was topped only by lego dude





The Girls Gone Wild Crew

The owner of Melvin’s, one of the organizers of last night’s event.


I’ll leave it to my friends over at New Raleigh to summarize the event, but I’ll say that for a first-ever event, it was an overwhelming success. The police officers I spoke with said there were no arrests (at least until I retired home @ 1am) and that there were no disturbances. There were many creative outfits that were well put together and the lego man was well deserving of the best costume award.
I hope to have a link to a gallery of all images taken, but in the meantime I’ll exceed my normal 3 images per post rule and put up some of my favorites.
