    Hey! I'm just south of Edmonton. We just moved here in June from Ontario... and I am getting nervous about the cold Edmonton winters! But I am still determined to lose the extra insulation!! lol!!
    You could be in luck, looking like it may be a mild winter again this year.

    We haven't had any of the good old winters where you froze to death by Halloween. Why I remember trick or treating and not making it more than 1 house without having to be let inside to warm up by the nice neighbours. Did I mention it was uphill both ways?

    I am now in Calgary, but grew up in northern BC, I can remember those halloweens -- you know the ones where the whole snowsuit has to fit under the costume. I also remember -40 for time and time on end, thank god those aren't all that common anymore.

    Welcome to Alberta! I'm from Edmonton! - wear layers, it does get cold here - but I do like that we usually have a sunny sky - granted it's -30. You'll get used to it!

    I live in Cochrane AB. Born and raised. I remember in the good ole days having to plan your halloween costume around snow suits. Always had two costumes, one for school (in the days that it was allowed) and one for the actual trick or treating. Ah, the memories :-)

    Oh yeah or your costume was an Eskimo or a polar bear cause it went with your coat or parka.
