I was told it was big here. I was told they closed off the road, it was so big. We gave out over 50 pounds of candy, one piece at a time, in about 3 hours. At one point, I counted more than 200 people in the street just in front of the three lots that were easily visible. These photos were taken with my phone before dark, but it got much busier after dark. ![]() www.hopeofglory.net/halloween 10-1.jpg[/img] ![]() www.hopeofglory.net/halloween 10-2.jpg[/img] |

Texas. In Alaska, not many people go trick-or-treating. At least not where I lived. There was one street of wealthy people (where Tom Bodet used to live) that bus loads of kids would come from other towns, but overall... My son went our first year there, and so few people were prepared for it that he came back with a full sized Snickers, $3.27, and 6 pounds of frozen fish.

Texans know how to trick or treat!! hope you were prepared! Sort of. One person suggested 100 pounds. With 50 pounds, we ran out about 8 o'clock. 100 pounds would have been a bit much, since numbers were down this year, but 50 pounds was not quite enough. |
