John, first, the blog is looking great. Second, hats off to Ken Magas, as he always finds a creative solution to any situation.
While we're a few days late, wanted to ask those dipping their toes into the blogosphere here about Halloween.
This year we had a dramatic increase in the number of trick-or-treaters at the door from last year.
Last year, we moved to Elizabeth and our house on Ridgeway a couple of weeks before Halloween. We stocked up on candy goodies, kept the porch light burning bright, and ended up eating all the candy ourselves - not one trick-or-treater showed.
This year, we put out big pumpkins, dressed up the house a bit more, put brighter bulbs in the porch light, and while the number of trick-or-treaters grew, I wouldn't call it a success.
The one little tyke that did show up was treated to an especially large, well, largess, and with four different candy bars in his booty-bag, he fist-pumped his way down the sidewalk, like he just sunk a 25-foot putt to win the U.S. Open.
My question is, what is wrong with Ridgeway? We've only lived there a year, so maybe someone can fill us in on why no ghosts or goblins? Was Ridgeway the site of a horrific all-hallow's eve tragedy? Is our street truly haunted? Anyone?
Seems to me trick-or-treating has declined steadily over the years. This year I attributed it to Halloween falling on a Monday night -- not the best night for kids or parents. Surprised to hear about Ridgeway, though. Other than that I haven't a clue. Anyone?
