Halloween Status

I got almost all of the props set up on Saturday.   That's 50 tombstones, 6 life-sized monsters, hundreds of skull, 2 coffins and a lot of "miscellaneous".  

Sunday, my wife got sick and 50 mph winds knocked everything down.

Tonight, I'll put it back up; tomorrow, I'll run power to the yard.

Another year...

...another blood sacrifice.

For those who are interested, if you are building a cemetery fence using $2 Target skulls as finials, and you need to drill a hole in the bottom of the skull....use a vise. Don't hold the top of the skull while drilling the bottom. If you DO hold the skull, make sure your off hand isn't in line with the drill bit, in case the drill bit pops through the bottom of the skull with enough force to ALSO pop through the top of the skull.

Overheard at my house:
"Wow, honey, there's a chunk of skin missing here, and a chunk of skin missing here."
"It's not missing, it's dangling over here."
