Do you have on your Halloween socks? That's usually as far as I go (all right, maybe I also wear my pumpkin t-shirt...) to dress up for Halloween, although I love carving the jack o' lantern, hanging up the pumpkin lights, and fixing a special Halloween dinner.
But things here in Ketchikan will be a lot different for us this year - I just read in the Daily News that our street is one of the main "candy routes." They block off our street and two others so the trick-or-treaters can be safe. Do you think about 600 pieces of candy will suffice??? (Stay tuned...) I actually opened the huge bags of candy I bought at Wal-mart and counted the pieces so I'd know how much we'd need for next year.
There are lots of ways for kids and adults to celebrate including "trunk and treat" activities in case it rains. There are enclosed parking lots where people can park and distribute candy to parading costumers. There are numerous activities at lots of downtown locations like the museum, library, discovery center, visitors' bureau and so on.
More fun things about small town living...
