Well, my block rarely gets kids. So my brother took his grandkids out (they live in another township) and I tagged along to stay with my niece and friend. Wow! They had about 50 kids, but they said that was nothing! My niece decorates her house, moving eyes in the hedges, cobwebs, mechanical mummies..all out. It's great. She was disappointed. So I guess either kids are getting too old to go out (who's too old for candy? If I could walk better, I'd go out) or neighborhoods are changing. Kinda sad. When I was a kid, (a long time ago people) we stayed out for hours without fear, had to go home to drop bags off and go out again. Candied apples, anything..all eatable, no razor blades..geez.
Tonight, when her kids came home, they gave me what they didn't want, so I ended up with lots of yummy stuff!!! All the gooey stuff so I have to triple brush my teeth (I have Invisaline braces) but I don't care. I LOVE "Dots" and "10000 Bars".
Ah!!! The good "ole days!
