We're sort of in the middle of the woods and with an intimidating 300 foot driveway going downhill... We've NEVER in the history of the house (Tom built it in 1977) ever had a single trick or treater -- even when we've specifically invited the neighbors' kids. But Tom always bought candy -- just in case.

This year, at the last minute, of course, our up-the-hill neighbor called to see if we were, uh, "receiving". Nope, sorry. This was the first year Tom did NOT buy treats. Sigh.
