Although kids on the Ottawa side of the river are being urged not to go trick-or-treating this year, today we adults got to visit our local park and get a treat of sorts - a bag of tulip bulbs, courtesy of ReMax. It was especially welcome since there don't seem to be a lot of garden centres open this year. Bulbs seem to be in short supply at most of the likely retailers, although we did manage to get a few from a Canadian Tire in the east end that offered curb side pickup.

The weather is co-operating here today - sunny and temperatures in the low teens. We went for our daily walk around the neighbourhood. Even without trick-or-treaters expected, many families are really going all out on the Halloween displays - and Halloween is still two weeks away!

As for how we'll spend Halloween? Maybe we'll have our own private screening of Rocky Horror or some other seasonally appropriate flick. And I've no doubt there'll be chocolate!
