I stood out on the front porch and watched as the sky went from being blue to being dark and gray in a matter of minutes.  That was the year that fall came early and almost all the leaves were gone by the end of October.  But just as the leaves fell early, so did the storms arrive ahead of schedule.  It rained hard during the afternoon and probably panicked everyone looking forward to spending the night collecting candy.

The rain stopped before evening came and that night, costumed searchers and their parents walked up and down the sidewalks, running up to houses and shouting, “Trick or Treat!”  I was alone that Halloween so I dressed up like a cat and handed out candy.  Everyone was extra grateful because they knew that if the storm had started just an hour later, there would have been no Halloween that year.
