The weather cooperated quite nicely on Halloween: warm fall temperatures
and no precipitation, making it just right for people in costume to
really show them off. But, turn-out was rather light this year. Characters young and old quit walking our neighborhood about a half-hour before the scheduled end time
The number of Halloween visitors has declined noticeably over the past decade, especially the past few years. Previously, there were more visitors, and it wasn't uncommon for stragglers to come knocking on the door after the scheduled ending time. People would sometimes run out of candy early because of so many visitors. This year, we bought the usual amount of treats, and wondered if we would run out early. But, we still had about half of them when people quit coming.
