    Honestly,I'm a garage person, most everyone I visit we hang out in the garage.
    I did build the best shed around...
    I wouldn't mind living in an old FEMA trailer, but I hope to put up a small house or cabin next year.

    Do you also, when you go into the house, use the side or back-door? (Or is that just a Maine thing?)

    I work every year that Halloween didn't fall on my day(s) off. Only 1 year have I even seen anyone standing on an overpass. One year we had a couple of eggs thrown at trucks. No incidents in the last 5-8 years. Frankly, I'd rather be working than handing out candy.

    Not me. I had a trek shirt. Threw that on. Fun times. Teasing too.

    Hard to TP a moving target. Besides we aint gots time for halloween.

    As a side note, today we don't celebrate holloween, it's changed from what we were as young children to something of the high holidays to satan, witches and warlocks. We want nothing to do with that.

    I'll sell you some vintage 1964 candy corn
    That way, next year, you won't have to worry bout someone knocking on your door.
