We had the first kids we’ve seen in several years. Had 6 so far, with possibly 2 more coming. Busy night.

Never expect many as we are on an acreage so I have enough treats left over to keep supplied through hunting season. Only one so far and it’s getting a bit late for little guys so that’s probably the lot for this year. Our local community hall opens and has treats which is a great idea.

I was just joking with my wife about putting out cigs for the older kids who are out after 8PM - no more little kids out there ..... so, I'd just put a sign out saying you must be at least 13 years old for a cig.

lol.
