Alexa says it's 57° right now, chilly enough to need a jacket.  I used to hate when we had to wear coats over our costumes.

I haven't see a trick or treeter for years.  I don't even buy candy and I live in a typical suburban neighborhood.  I dont know why we never have kids around.

@Kachina624  I haven't had them for 19 years but that's bc of where I lived.

I'm back in the burbs but I know ever since the "altered candy" stories of the past, many families go to the local indoor malls where the individual stores hand out candy (has ability to participate no matter what the weather), many rural places have churches/schools that have "trunk or treat" in parking lots which is exactly what it sounds like - parents take candy to these locations bc a parking lot is much safer than kids navigating country roads.

Our neighborhood used to have lots of YOUNG children. They are grown now, so Trick-or-treating is not a thing.

Our nephew and his family live in a perfect “trick-or-treat” neighborhood!

From the videos he posted, their was a Halloween night like the ones I remembered!

I was close to running out of treats.  We only had about a half an hour left, and I figured we'd be okay. 

We did have more kids than I thought.

It was very cold here.  The kids we did have were all bundled up.

We didn't get many kids but we had them from 6 until 7:30 when TOT was over.  I bought 5 bags of fun size candy bars and probably have close to 3 bags left.
