Heck, we have NEVER had kids come to our place since we moved to Florida. We're out in the boonies and the house is in the middle of the woods at the end of a long winding driveway. We're probably known as the crazy people with snakes and guns...
In Baltimore, we would run out of candy in about 2 hours. The doorbell would ring, and there would be a line of kids out to the end of the sidewalk. We lived in a development where every family there had about 32 kids. Either that or they were bussing in kids from other areas. It was like a swarm of locusts had been let loose on the neighborhood.
After we ran out of candy, we had to turn out the lights and go hide down in the basement.....
