On All Saints Day, after going to the earliest Mass possible, we road our bikes around the public schools munching on our candy. And yes, we wore our masks from the night before- because we knew if we were spotted by the principal there would be a call to the convent. We redeemed ourselves by "springing" the dead from purgatory on Nov. 2nd- All Souls Day. Thanks for posting- good memories.
