They were dressed as super heroes and comic book stars and even a princess or two. And they looked at me laboring in my lawn and laughed at me like I was beneath them, just a big fat lumbering peasant in their midst.
We had a grand total of two groups of Trick-or-Treaters. I was still mowing the grass when the first group came through. My daughter got to give out candy to one other group. Then a quiet night after that. We lit the jack o lanterns and put them across the driveway when it got dark.
Our oldest is still out there somewhere in the night.
