Just curious about how many trick r treaters you guys ended up getting.

Riverside?

Avondale?

Springfield?

Whoever else?

We didn't have that many in my section of Mandarin, granted we left at 845 to go meet with friends to party hop.

I wasn't home early enough to see if we had trick or treaters, but at the bars in Five Points that night there were plenty of people dressed up getting treats from the bar tenders.

Sadly, the vast majority of trick or treaters in my Riverside neighborhood near Park & King over the years have been too old to be trick or treating and not in costume.  This year was no exception.  Not cool.

We saw a large number of non-residents in Avondale. Not as many as in past years, but a large number of folks. Am still picking up the wrappers that the non-residents left behind. I know it was them, because I don't pick up candy wrappers the other 51 weeks of the year.

Ponte Vedra Beach. One of the many sub-divisions. Excellent turnout of the 3-12 year olds. A few teenagers.

All well behaved and polite.

I have to say it was a good day... I didn't even have to use my A-K.  Cool

World Golf Village, we had quite a few, all of them delicious. I liked the lemon roasted the best. Some of the sweetest breast meat I ever ate.

I had none in Springfield, but did not get home from watching the game until about 30 minutes after sunset.

Yeah, it was 25-30. That was sort of Laura Streets Fault. We had planned our annual hay ride that we started doing the same year that the Womans Club started sponsoring one of their own. They stopped a few years ago, but we kept going. We had so many this year it really should have been two trailers. :-/
