They should just hire MrMacy and drive thru.

HOLY MOLY! I just got back with my 5 year old, we were walking for over 2.5 hours. He must have 10 lbs of loot! My wife is out of candy for the first time here in 4 years. Over 100 kids that's alot. We usually get 50-60 tops. There were packs of kids here in the neighborhood 20-30 deep screamin and yelling going down the road. Wow it was fun 
I didn't see any cars dropping kids off either. Great nite to be out and nice to see the locals driving the streets several times patrolling in Uxbridge instead of sitting around eating donuts and bagels like Hooper and Swimmer kidding |

We had maybe 30 kids altogether, plus I met Fishguts, a fellow S-Ber and plug builder. Small world and great Halloween.

Went around the block and down one street with the boys...filled up their pumpkins quick! Only took 1 hour and 15 minutes. Some people gave out goodie bags and in it was a bag of famous amos cookies, king size M&Ms and 2 tootsie roll pops. Crazy people! We then went to my aunt's house for dinner and when we all went inside to eat...some little pumpkin heads stole all the candy out of the cauldron. Grrr!
Hope you all had fun. I love Halloween!

Probably had 18 to 20 kids here. Half of them looked like they were 15 or 16  One of them in a group of 4 had a goatee 
So the little kids got a handful and the bigger "kids" each got 1. |

Sadly never get any at home so, just spent over an hour in the church parking lot passing out candy to several hundred "trunk or treaters'. Heard one group came from 5 miles away. Its great, lots of very young spooks learning the ropes in a safe place with adults every where to keep an eye on them. 6 months to 70yrs dressed up having fun. Locals love it.

Scott, if you give out lure kits, you can bet that some moroon is going to think that you were trying to feed hooks to kids  |

Famous Amos cookies  SCORE!
we never get kids here so we go out
Jenna went to her friends house for a party and Danny went to the mall with a friend, wife and I ate dinner a Bertucci's . The costumes at the mall were really good.
I did not eat any candy |

Something that disappointed me was seeing my next door neighbor sending their kids out and leaving their lights off so they didn't have to give out candy. Thumbs down. 1/2 the fun is giving stuff out I think. I really enjoyed going out with the 5 year old. My 13 year old went to a friends house for the night so we were by ourselves. I think we covered about 2 miles. Kid had a ball too which was awesome. We walked around shining flashlights in our faces and scaring each other Man to be young again 
Nebe no hooks |

Like I said, it was mayhem in the neighborhood.
We have 4 cul de sacs and 1 main street about 45 homes.
We may as well shut down the entrances to the area kids, parents and animals everywhere.
Only a few did not have their lights on, because they went out with their kids.
It was solid door knockin for 2 hours.

Bagels, Booger, its bagels........... 
Didn't work last night, first time in 34 years. Went home to help wife give out candy and no one came to the house. Entire neighborhood had no kids come down the street. Weird. Alls I wanted was one kid to come and I was going to dump all the candy into his bag and smile at the kids parents. |
