Nanobugs Sightings All Over Lincoln!

What a great Halloween last night!   The weather in Lincoln, Nebraska was perfect; the children (and teens) were dressed appropriately and poised with bags the size of lawn leaf bags - to collect enough candy to supply an orphanage in China!!  My doorbell was ringing solid from 7 PM to 9 PM.    No candy here - the treats were nanobugs cards and a temporary tattoo.  I was initially a bit worried that some disenchanted trick-or-treaters who were set on collecting candy and received a nanobugs tattoo instead, might "egg" my house in protest.   However, the response of toddlers to teens was so positive!  One 12- year-old (?) boy responded with, "Thanks.  YOU ROCK!" - that's probably the highest compliment that could be paid to a  middle-aged "provider of treats" on Halloween.  My overall assessment of the nearly 100 cute and scary people on my front porch last night was that they were polite, grateful, creative and full of fun....and of the same spirit in which the nanobugs were created.   

Adrian Olivera, a member of the TeamFire cycling club which nanobugs sponsors, carved one of his pumpkins into a glowing advertisement for nanobugs.  He sent us a photo of this unique Jack-O-Lantern last night via email.  That was MY treat for Halloween along with seeing my grandchildren dressed for the occasion.
