We had just a few due to the high wind and cold temps.

Front light out, no kids, but house across street number 420 had the light on, but we can't turn it off, so I"d imagine a bunch of hammering and no one to answer, tried to loosen the bulb, but no go....oh well.....

Disappointing year.

I always buy 96 Reese's peanut butter cups. I usually have between 2 and 6 left, or run out completely. I probably have more left than I gave out. I'm guessing only about 25-30 kids. My street was mostly dark. People are no fun anymore.

Years ago, when we lived in a suburban development with the houses close together, we used to get 80-100, although that number seemed to decrease every year. I think we had about 30 the last year we were there.

Now we're on a rural road, no sidewalks, maybe 250 ft from the road to the front door; no trick or treaters at all 3 years in a row. At this point in my life, that's fine with me.

About 20 more than last year. Good thing I made 300 bags

OMG am I tired

Wish we took some pics, we borrowed a casket my brother made had a ghost in it, our usual grim reaper, couple of tombstones.

The casket is a must borrow again item, served as a cool factor (couple of kids took their pictures in our "grave yard" and it also held our candy stash

Rain and high winds kicked out area in the head.
The festivities downtown were cancelled. Only had 38 total, which is about 1/3 the amount of kids we get.
