We live in a rural area which makes ghosting much harder. And the city of Prescott doesn't have street lights, so they can enjoy the stars. But this makes it VERY dark. Well tonight we were spotted by a driver as we walked in the dark, with our car lights turned off and pulled off to the side of the road. The driver spotted us, passed, slowed, looked at the parked car, and then turned around. I flagged the car down, because I could tell he was taking action. As I let the driver know we were just taking treats to the neighbors, he was surprised because he had started to call the sheriff. Great to know we have such diligent neighbors.
We then tried to ghost a family Kyle home teaches. However, the 3 dogs out front didn't let us get to far. As the kids got back in the car they were concerned that someone might shoot at us. Dogs barking, car parked on the side of the dark street. Remember, we leave in the country so I'm sure everyone owns a gun. Instead of ghosting, Kyle suggested we just walk up the treats to the Thompson's. As Kyle backed the car up he accidentally took out their brick mail box. We hope the Thompson won't request new home teachers too quickly. But now we have a night of ghosting to remember.

How's your car?
Oh dear...LOL
Our neighborhood does Boo! too. We got booed last week and then the family that we decided to boo apparently wasn't home. So, after a day we picked our stuff back up off their porch and left it for someone else.
Ouch about the mailbox!
Oh man! It is amazing how a different environment changes life in so many ways. It sounds like you have some memories you won't forget though!
