The last year I went I simply pulled a sheet over my head, cut eyes and wore a bow tie!<br /><br />One of my favorite things was seeing if 'the big, rich, houses' that left candy out to take as you saw fit on the honor system, had any left for me when I got there! <br /><br />Every year it was a curiously odd phenomenon that I eagerly investigated! <br /><br />lg<br /><br />(Life in America!) :-) (And) it's good.

I'm not sure why. I guess most of the kids have grown in my neighborhood. I leave candy out and a funny note because I'm usually still on the computer, as I am now. <br /><br />We had to driven to another neighborhood for Halloween. I lived in an orange grove and not too many people lived there PLUS not many people wanted to drive down the loooong dirt road to get our house. Still it is a fun time.

Back in the 60's, it had the flavor of an All-American, Norman Rockwell, Charlie Brown feel about it.<br />It's nice that you offer the moms candy. That way they won't have to raid their kid's bags. : )<br />I'm taking my 16 year old out tonight. She and a friend will dress up and take the friend's younger siblings around town.
