In next door Encinitas there will be a Safe Trick of Treat at "Pumpkin Lane" Halloween Nightfrom 5 - 8 pm. The event takes place in downtown Encinitas along Route 101, with many local merchants participating by handing out goodies of their own choosing, with lots of fun and games along the way.

Sounds like a ton of fun. You probably never have to deal with the rain on Halloween like we Seattleites do most years.

Jeff, one of the local theme parks has put together a haunted house this year, and it is suppose to be outstanding.  It is so good that it is not a good idea for anyone with a heart problem to go through it :) :) :)

Colleen - so true. But I remember having snow on e Halloween when I lived in Boston, VERY freaky. And in Mpls. the kids had to wear parkas one year becuase it was below 30. I'll take CA.
