Zero.

I didn't even buy candy to give out at home - I bought some for my students. We had a Halloween Parade around the school, and it was so fun! I live at the far end of my complex, so no one comes all the way down. There's a church a block from here that started doing Trunk or Treat a few years ago, and since then, I've not had a single kid. The first few years we were here, we had tons. I'm glad the church is giving them a safe place to do it, but I miss getting to use my big "spell book" that opens and cackles when I reach in for candy.

Beatrice, We just had family and friends kids. We had 8 more after that first load.

It does make you wish for the "Good Old Days".... I guess everything changes, but I sure do miss having flocks of little Cuties ringing my bell!

I remember coming home with a pillow case so full, I was dragging it in, and the kids were lined up at the doors. Now, hardly anything.

Haha, I bet it was crazy, Foxy! Just about any holiday, and that place is packed. I'm going up there in a month for a conference, and looking forward to doing some of my Christmas shopping while I'm there.
