Halloween is in two days

Halloween is in two days

Halloween is in two days, and frankly, I don’t care. Yes, that’s right. My heart isn’t in it this year. Anyone who knows me knows that for as long as I can remember, Halloween is my favorite holiday, or is that was? I don’t know myself. I suppose I will know years from now.

What’s changed?

Let’s see. What’s changed. First, I now live in a fifty-five and up community. No one comes to the house for trick-or-treating. Only a few houses in my neighborhood decorate anything to do with the holiday. When they do, is a set of string lights and a pumpkin, which wasn’t carved into a jack-o’-lantern. How sad is that?

Halloween is here

— Halloween is here, and I’m ready for it. –

For those of you who don’t know me, I am a big Halloween aficionado. It’s my favorite holiday of the year.

This years theme is FISHING.

Hmm, just what does that mean in the context of Halloween. Well, you’ll find out this weekend. I’ll reveal a bunch of photos of my display. I do it because I love to celebrate it. 

Granted, this is not a high-end, expensive display.  Rather, it is all home-grown out of my feeble but creative brain.

Brains!!!! Brains!!!! hmmm Brains!!!!

Oh, sorry. A bit of a tangent there.

Anyway, I build the majority of my props by hand, from scratch. Everyone for miles around come by to see the display. I don’t do it to earn money, sell tickets or for community relations.

I do it cuz I Love It.

I’ve already had my first of three parties to celebrate the season. The next is tonight and the finale will of course be Halloween Night.

Bring on the witches, goblins, monsters, ghosts and zombies.

I can’t wait.
