Friday Photo: Always a Bridesmaid...

Last week at this time, the country was scrambling for costumes and poll results. Now it’s good riddance to candy corn and campaign ads, at least until next year. We captured this week’s Friday Photo last night while strolling up Manhattan’s Fifth Avenue, the site of a shuttered Halloween shop. Guarding the cash register of the ephemeral holiday retail hub was a life-sized crimson ghoul who appeared none too pleased about the store’s closure. His frustration extended to the results of the presidential election; perhaps not suprisingy, he was rooting for the red states.
