Halloween By The Book

Remember the good ole days of Halloween and Trick or Treating? (showing my age here)

We would set out shortly after dinner with pillow cases.  Running full tilt from house to house, filling a pillow case, then running home to dump and run back out.  Word would get out on the street as to which houses had the extra special treats.  I remember a year where someone had made popcorn balls and there was a mad rush to their house - like the grand opening of Nordstrom Rack.  We were FEARLESS at the time of year when it was all about being scared.

Now - fear has taken over the whole event.  Kids don't go out without parents, treats are checked over before consumption and people buy or rent costumes instead of creating them.

But I digress.  There is still joy to be found in the enthusiasm of those small ghosts and goblins.  And in keeping with the times - many cities actually have posted "trick or treating" hours.  Here is a compiled list of what we could find.
