25 here. Cold, damp and high winds. Light up masks are big this year.

At The Princess's high school there was a black girl dressed as Aunt Jemima. I kid you not.

We're up to 9. I'm surprised to see this many.

I doubt we even get one (which is what we had last year) I had to chisel the top off my carved pumpkins to get the candle in...

Have you been there a year already? So where are you moving next? Big Grin

Up to 12 but I think that might be it. Technically trick-or-treat hours are 3 to 7 (it's 6:30), but it's dark and cold out there.

Weather has been awful (storming, torrential downpour-level rain) and we don't have a sense of how many kids are in the neighborhood, or how many would come here, so we decided to leave the porch light off this year. Next year we probably will participate.

I gave out tons of candy to my students though. Smiler
