I have no way of knowing for certain, but last night may have been the best Halloween in terms of numbers that we've had. They just kept coming and coming, sometimes in waves, usually a few at a time. But we passed out candy from about 5:15 until after 8:30. Typically there's just a two hour window of, say, 6-8.
The weather was great. It was warm for a late October day here in the D, 65 in fact. Perhaps it reflects the pent up demand from the COVID years too. People can finally relax again.
On the whole, the trick or treaters were quite cordial. We complain that manners are gone by the wayside but I didn't see it last night. Lots of thank yous and such. There was even a small marching band dressed for the occasion and going around the neighborhood. Other than some old guy's back giving out from standing so long, it wasn't a bad night at all.
