unsinkable Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 It rained like crazy for hours all afternoon and evening into trick or treating hours. Then the front hit during t/t time with 40mph winds plus higher gusts. this morning tens of thousands of people w/o electricity, closings bc of no electricity, flooding, downed trees and power lines. We did have about 20 brave , intrepid trick or treaters...that middle childhood age of 9 to 11 where they still love costumes and are not deterred by weather and/or can convince the parents not to be deterred by weather. Only 1 really little kid who was in a group of bigger kids. I did miss seeing all the T/Ts of all ages. It is such a fun holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
historically accurate Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 It was the snowiest Halloween on record in our town (3.1 inches). Also unseasonably cold: 2nd coldest Halloween ever (33 degrees). DH took the kids out briefly, and I handed out candy. We only had about 1/2 the normal amount of kids, and they were 90% middle and high school kids. I think the youngers went to the indoor activities. I did have one kid swear I was his Kindergarten teacher - he would not be dissuaded I wasn't her by his mother. He hugged me and told me he couldn't wait to see me in school tomorrow.
