[RP TownTalk] trick-or-treat

[Todd Whitehead]

I live on 51st and Ravenswood.  I had far fewer trick-or-treaters this year than I did last year.  I would estimate about 20 all night.  A mom brought her five-year-old at 9:20!  It was my fault for not turning off my front light, but still!

I enjoyed seeing the kids and wished more had shown up.

Subject: [RP TownTalk] trick-or-treat

How was the trick-or-treating for everyone this year?  I mentioned to David Lingua that maybe THAT could be our Riverdale Park specialty 'trick-or-treat village'.  : )  We do seem to get a lot of kids from neighboring areas.

Last year I had to have kids line up in two rows in front of my house, we were that swamped.  This year, not so much.  I was curious how it was for others.  I even got in a costume, perched in a chair in my driveway, and put the bowl of candy on my lap, but no one came!  I ended up having to wash my dishes!!  It didn't get busy until after 7 pm.

However, we always get trick-or-treaters long after 8 even though our light is off.  We buy over 10# of candy and give it away before 8, always.  What gives with them coming so late?  Even little ones.  

Anyway, I think it is great fun.  

Nancy
