but over 40 trick-o-treaters..... time to shut it all down

I haven't had a single one in the 12 years I've lived here. They do the Trunk 'n Treat in church parking lots these days.

I just went out to shut it all down and for the first time since I lived here, the street was lined with cars bringing in kids from other places... that happened where I use to live, it actually got so bad virtually everyone on the street shut their lights off and didn't do any of it....

In early 2000s I lived on a cul de sac that rocked hard until at least 8 with cars that dropped the kids off at the neighborhood entrance. I didn't even bother to close the door. My little dog LOVED all the company. It was fun for a few years but grew old as the Trick or Treaters started showing up more than once, and oftentimes taller than me.

Knew a guy, that as a kid, he and his friends would go to this rather hard to get to neighborhood full of mini-mansions.... they never got trick o treaters there.... they would wear 2 costumes....hit all the houses the first time...take the outer costume off and hit them all again. They never got anyone there..... so they didn't have candy....so instead...they gave out money...

When my kids were young and Holloween hit on a weekend that they were with their Dad, I forgot. I thought word of my apples would spread and cause them to "trick" (it was that kind of neighborhood), but actually they loved it!

yeah, but did they run over your mailbox and try and tell you it was your fault......

They did finally end up replacing it by the way

No but I had a contractor start a job, get partial payment and walk off leaving a mess once. And we had a real dispute about the staining on kitchen cabinets being wrong another time. People, even honest ones, screw up from time-to-time. The best one's are honest.
