Trick or Treat ?

I've been debating this myself. I don't know exactly what, if anything, I'm going to do. One wonders whether or not parents will allow their kids to go out.

My kindergarten pal in Florida just replied on an email to me that if she still had a kid she would not let them go. I am thinking of it from the "get off my lawn" point of view, not wishing that this old man contributes to the potential demise of others (or me)

pequa,, sad:(,, ,boy when mojoe was a kid,,still is :LOL:,,, man what a time we had on that day,,, socks with dryed white powder cement in them hitting each other heads,, we had eggs all over us too,,i can go on and on,,, those were the days,,, and the big bags of candy,, before mojoe ate any my mother went threw all the candy to make sure it was safe to eat :eek::p:),,, pequa thanks you brought it all back to mojoe (y),,,,,,,,maureen says shes not going to answer the door this year?,,,,,,,,,,,,,,[COLOR=rgb(26, 188, 156)] ><)))):>

We get many every year, this year we will put a table blocking steps, if and when children show up, we will place candy bars on table and they can take it from there.

We expect to get maybe half of what we usually get but that’s society in general lately...everything is 50/50
Some will venture out, some will not I’m sure.

Don't know what to expect, last year the doorbell rang once, my driveway is almost 250'. I think the kids are too lazy to walk that far.

Easy for me, my part of Maine is the home of "over the river and through the woods" to the nearest neighbor, there is virtually no house to house Trick or Treating. Families drive into town and go from car trunk to car trunk, and also stop in the local businesses. We haven't had a one in 10 years, BUT the Admiral always has a bag of Snickers (her favorite, my least favorite) "just in case", yeah, right!!!

I do miss it though. I would always dress up and give out the candy..

That's interesting. This morning I was talking to the admiral about the same thing and suggested we could make a chute that went through the window to the doorstep to dispense treats. Obviously these people took it up a notch, but it parallels what I was thinking.

Thanks for posting that.

Doctors are coming out against it. Perhaps her highness just doesn't want to be the grinch?

I decorated, and bought the candy. Probably going to add my "winter weight" a month early. If my kids were of that age they would not be going out.

bummer its come to that Mr. Mojoe but I don't disagree with you.
Hopefully you have enuf cleaning supplies to clean the eggs off your house that get tossed at you, LOL

We are taking the approach of hanging in the driveway and setting up a table as a buffer to avoid kids coming up to the door.
Not sure how many, if any, kids to expect since the last few years we were either at Dead and Company at MSG on Halloween or at friends parties.... I really don't anticipate many but we are prepared just in case.
Not sure if my son's driveway jam will draw kids or scare them away ?

There's a guy with his family down the block. They're all doped up.
He thinks he's coming knocking on my door with his kid. I wouldn't
even attempt to ring his bell.
