It was warmish, and a bit rainy, but as usual we had only two kids at the door (there may have been more younger ones out while Meghan was at church); surprisingly there weren't any bands of teens looking for loot.
The best thing I saw was at work--the children's librarian was handing out books and candy so families came in big bunches. Lots ot fairy princesses, witches and various cartoon characters. Highlight was the family that came as the Scoobies, minus a Daphne. Two youngest boys were Scrappy and Scooby, oldest boy was a junoir Shaggy, Mom was Velma and Dad was Fred in a truly scary blond wig.
I remember the year we were bold and went to the far side of our big out-in-the-sticks development and one dad sat in a box and handed out candy as if he were Thing (and as this was probably while Addams Family was on the air, it was ultra-cool).
