Maybe because we had so many in our family that we could all dress up and go out Trick or Treating. I know Mom loves Halloween. The year she dressed up as Witch with the green face and warts and fake nose then she pushed her way into Roberta's house, Jackie Ponte, and I think Michael too. She got them all good!
Now that I live on a highway, I "hope" no one brings their kids trick or treating because it would be too dangerous.
And folks back North, when I say I live on a highway, it is not like Rt 140 or 195, all the roads down south are some form of Highway number etc. I live more on a divided two lane road that just happens to have a speed limit of 55mph.
Now off to eat my Milk Duds I bought...just in case there are kids tomorrow night.
