    I see that was 91.

    Over 28 inches by the time it was done.

    Never had a Halloween cancelled when I was growing up. You just put your snowsuit on under your costume, slapped on your mukluks and got on with it. What is the matter with this modern generation anyway as my Dad used to say.

    I agree with Bob. Growing up in Saskatchewan, Halloween was never cancelled, even if it was a blizzard. There’s rain in my area of Quebec, so all the towns (and even Montreal) have postponed it until tomorrow.

    No snow here in Walla Walla and in fact I can't ever remember ever having snow on Halloween.

    I usually don't get a lot of trick or treaters but the little ones start around 4 pm and the big kids start showing up around 8 pm so once those start that's when I shut off the porch light.

    NOW my best friend who live in El Cajon (20 miles outside of San Diego) gets over 400 kids. He says that his wife buys bag after bag at WalMart and when it's gone then they turn out the lights.

    I think it might be less expensive to plan on going out for the late afternoon and evening for dancing and dining.

    It's in the 20s outside and the kids keep coming. I got to go to bed by 8 pm for work in the morning so I will be pulling the batteries out of the doorbell. When I bought that doorbell the wife didn't understand why. Now she knows!
    Happy Halloween my friends.

    High, dry and in the 80s here. Enjoy it if that's your thing I guess but I'll take 80s.
    Happy Reformation Day everyone.

    I like the colder weather here. This year we got very many more smaller children that I recognize from the immediate area. At least a larger percentage.
