Happy Halloween

Well this Halloween turned out to be a bust for thousands of Connecticut children because of the first "winter" Nor'easter that came through on Saturday.  Over 700,000 households in the state don't have power and there are trees in the roads in many communities that are making it very unsafe to have a Halloween.  Derby didn't get hit that hard.  There weren't very many people who lost power.  My parents (in Farmington) have had no power since 4 p.m. on Saturday and they have a large limb sitting on top of their house. 

So far I've had about 1 group of kids every 10 minutes.  So, maybe I will get rid of all this candy I bought.  Most of the kids are from the neighborhood.  I never really understood why we don't get more kids since it's a condo.  You'd think a lot of kids would want to come here since there are so many units in a small space.  Maybe we have a reputation of having a lot of grumpy old ladies, ha ha.
