We need to hear about the coolest costumes.
We're likely not going to get more than a half-dozen kids.

Is there any unwritten rule about the earliest start time for trick or treating? I always thought it shouldn't start until it gets dark outside

5:30-6 is acceptable. 4:45PM people might not even be home yet. Might as well invite them in to eat dinner with you.

Good thing it is not freezing out tonight or they would be dead by the time the kids got home.

My parents never let us start until 6.
I just had my first trick or treater at 4:53. I had nothing ready by the door and was in the middle of a work call so that was fun.

Someone needs to invent a Rocket launcher to shoot candy into bags. Handing it out is no fun.

I’m out in Strathmore. I don’t have decorations up but I’m thinking of printing a photo of Nenshi to scare the parents.
