On Halloween (Saturday, Oct. 31st), the annual “Boo In Burien” took place, where children went trick or treating from business to business, dogs (and kids) in costumes paraded, and wiener dogs raced against each other.
This year’s event was sponsored by Discover Burien, Prudential Northwest and Grocery Outlet.
The B-Town Blog was there of course, and Photographer Michael Brunk captured these photos:
