Halloween Covid19 Style

So everyone seems to be faced with a decision this Halloween…. To Trick or Treat or not?

I personally didn’t want to follow our yearly tradition of going through the neighborhood because I knew the kids would be very dissappointed if very few doors opened and welcomed trick or treaters. So we found a safe and fun alternative where they are bound to return home with a pluthera of candy I will be snacking from in the coming month.

Here are some GREAT local options for Trunk or Treat’s or Fall Festivals still happening in our area:
