![Oscar The Grouch Costume - Slideshow [Halloween 2015]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/dpMrioIMmv4/mqdefault.jpg "Oscar The Grouch Costume - Slideshow [Halloween 2015]
After the successful Animal costume in 2013, I ended up with pneumonia in 2014 after crawling under the house to jack part of it back up. I phoned it in with a Boba Fett helmet and hoodie. For 2015, I decided to do another kid friendly, full body costume using faux fur and a sewing machine. Im horrible at sewing, but I pulled it off ... and somehow landed the Grand Prize in the Instructables Halloween Contest.

Exploration: Central Station, MAS, Grote Markt, Nello & Patrasche Statue, Cathedral of our Lady, side streets and churches, Vlaeykensgang hidden alley, Het Steen/info center.
*Turns out you need a hired guide scheduled in advance to climb the belfry, so that was a failure on my part.

After the last full body costume almost did me in, I decided to take it easy for a year and use a costume I purchased with the store credit I won from my Oscar the Grouch Costume. Then I decided to make a sinking sailboat for the front yard. Followed by a treasure chest, pirate sign, and pallet boat dock.
