A Southern Halloween

Over the years from time to time we have had warmer Halloween's, but typically on Halloween when we would sit out on our driveway and give out candy, it would be cold.  A few years ago they postponed Halloween when we were hit with an early snowstorm.

A snowstorm on Halloween is something that will never happen in South Carolina.  Yesterday was in the 70's and we sat out on our driveway in our new development and waited and waited and waited.  We did have a dozen or two dozen kids come by and we let them take 5 or 6 small pieces of candy, but there weren't a lot of kids that we saw.

Eventually, we'll have close to 200 houses here and Halloween will be busy like it was in New Jersey.  The highlight of the day had to be my wife dancing to the "Monster Mash" on our driveway which was blaring from the neighbors across the street.(and I have a short video too)  It was odd seeing so many neighbors at the same time on our quiet street.

The biggest issue we have from Halloween is, what do we do with the 150 leftover pieces of candy? I think we'll just put it away and use it next year, why not?
