The last year Old Trunks trick or treated was Halloween of 1955. It may have been the same year Betty and I wore the lamp shades. Our family was moving to the country that day, the snow began early in the day....and to fast forward....we had our last snow on Mother's Day.
Betty and I had already decided we were going as a box. FINALLY we had our customes on the outside instead of under our coats.
We took a Youngstown cupboard box from the farm and cut two holes for vision; one for each of us. The box was not level, she was taller than I. Yet, as we walked through the neighborhoods begging for candy, the cardboard got soggy and the top began to fit on the top of our heads.
Yes, it was a little diffucult to get treats and found we had to lift the box up to get the candy in our bags. When we got back to her house, we dumped out the candy out of the wet bags and passed all the cupcakes, fruit, popcorn balls, and candy we didn't like to her mother.
How about you?
