I Hope You a Good Halloween, Cuz I Know We Did

Two years in a row bad weather (ice storm, Hurricane Sandy) left us impotent (it literally means without power) on or around Halloween, making normal trick-or-treating impossible. The last time Julian experienced a normal Halloween he was not even 3 months old. This year the weather was our friend (though we had a brief drizzle) and we got out for about 2 solid hours of trick-or-treating. We could have done even more had Chase not started to feel sick and had Julian not tired of walking. The great thing about my neighborhood is the vibrancy during events like this. Yes, there are tons of families with young kids walking around. But there are also elderly people whose kids did this 40 years ago, who give out copious amounts of candy and compliments.
