Happy Halloween!

RE: Happy Halloween!
So, last night, because we figured out that Trick or Treating wasn’t officially canceled, just strongly discouraged (and we didn’t buy any candy last week), I decided to make (and laminate) a sign for any potential trick or treaters who might have been foolhardy enough to try it. And because I wanted to make sure it stayed in place, I even managed to figure out how the screen door worked so I could put it between the screen and the glass:

I took another picture from a wider vantage point, but my house number is clearly visible on the door, and I don’t think revealing that sort of identifying information is a good idea, do you?

It's not that we discourage it or anything -

Kids just don't want to walk half a mile or more between houses.....

It's a similar situation here. I live in a rural area about half a mile from the village and my house is about 300' uphill from the highway. Kids have never come trick-or-treating here.

Can't say I blame them...not enough return on investment.
