One of the advantages of living in a rural area between to small towns is that
the greedy little kids go into town where they don't have to travel as far to
fill their loot bags. When my son was small his friends used to come by, but we
haven't had a kid show up here for about 10 years now. I buy two or three full
size chocolate bars just in case they local kids bother to come here.
