Halloween fell on a Friday this year and many kids were quite thrilled to be able to trick or treat on a Friday evening and stay up to count their goodies. We had an unusually warm evening - 60 degrees and it was perfect. Since we never get any action on our road, we took Matthew back to the old condo on Hope Street and spent the evening knocking from door to door. He dressed as his favorite- Indiana Jones and Tony went along as a SWAT team member. We came home two hours later and Matthew's sack was filled. While he was busy counting up his stash, Tony and I were busy checking out all the candy to make sure it was safe. We did find some candy manufactured in China which went straight into the trash. Need I say more?
