An Old Lyme firetruck leads the traditional Halloween Costume Parade along Lyme Street.
Despite the major storm on Sunday night, the weather was perfect for Halloween. Trick-or-Treaters came in vast numbers to enjoy the evening and wander up and down Lyme Street, along with some of the side roads, to see what treats — or tricks — were in store.

Parades are always such fun!
