We have no visitors at our house either (way too far from town!), and the community here is quite spread out, so about 10 years ago the town of Rye decided to start having a "trunk or treat" so that the community could all be in one place. Rye proper is about two blocks long and one block wide so on Halloween they cordon off the 4-way stop in the middle of town and folks who live outside of town can park their vehicles along each side and offer candy from the back. Families park across the highway at the high school and they walk into town for trick-or-treat. It's a lot of fun!
I forgot to mention that Maya discovered that miniature Oreos are THE BEST! It took me a minute to convince her to try the first one (she couldn't find the little black cookie on my black glove), but once she found it she was hooked! She wouldn't leave me alone after that so I saved a package of them for her to eat on the way home that night. She almost ripped my fingers off in her enthusiasm and she looked heartbroken when the package was empty.
