First time I went out with my daughter, previously we just did the mall thing, but this year we hit the streets.
Our neighborhood does it up right.
Several full size bars.
Quality candy all around
And some neighbours even giving out proper toys.
Tons of awesome set-ups too.

Fun night.

We had about 35 kids in total, but missed a bunch because we were out.

45 in Hillhurst.

Special props to CPS for getting into the spirit of things. A pickup truck unit was driving around blaring the 60's Batman theme out of the speakers. The two officers were dressed up as Batman and Robin and would jump out and hand out candy to passing groups of kids. They even blacked out their truck, drove silently behind a group of teens and scared the beejesus out of them by flipping on the lights and giving them the ole 'bwoop, bwoop" with the siren.

Just say no to malls parents!!

We got about 30 in Sandstone this year, which is up from most years. Usually we get about 15-20.

Only 22 in Signal Hill. I hypothesize that wolves kept the smaller kids away.

We had 30ish, but 15 were very close neighbors.
Surprisingly quiet, given the decent temperature.

Our kids have nut allergies and our Reese-related haul/parent tax seems above average this year. That's not a complaint though.

We've had a moderate amount so far. Quite a few between 6 and 7pm. Probably 30-40. Since then, probably about 12.

Last year we have maybe 10.

This was one of the more busier years... we had about 50 goblins come knocking in the millrise area , thinking the weather played a big part

1 group of 4 kids at around 7...that's it. Kinda thought we would have gotten a bit more. Point Mckay area (actually has a decent amount of kids, just none trick or treating).
