Halloween is Coming – Blogophilia 15.14

Off and on for the last fifteen years or whatever I’ve participated in a blog group called Blogophilia. It started back on MySpace, and though it took a hiatus last year, it is now back! I missed the first week, but I’m here for the second, at least.
The way it works is Marvin (our fearless blogophilia leader) gives us prompts to use in our blog. This week’s prompts are:
Ecrits Blogophilia Week 15.14 Topic:
All Roads Point to Nowhere
Hard Prompt: Reference a Kevin Bacon movie (Footloose)

Easy Prompt: Include an object to your right while writing your blog (Benji the puppy)
I still need to do the Renaissance Fair blog, but again, it’s the hundreds of photos hanging it up, so I’m gonna dance on past it now, Footloose and fancy free, as they say.
Haven’t done much that’s newsworthy, really. We went to Mondos the other day and, wow! It’s a Halloween explosion in there! This is what I mean when I say I want to decorate for a holiday. Sadly, I’m too lazy and crunched for time to do it, though.










We did get some work done on our display. We need to add the rest of the skeleton birds and the sign, but otherwise the Heluva Public Park is done. I’m not sure if you can tell it, but the guy on the stretcher got hurt playing frisbee with the other two. I need to add a beer can to the dude hanging out of the garbage can, give the bench guy some bird seed (and his other birds) and I think I’m going to make red crosses for the medic’s shirts, just out of sticky vinyl



We also started the front display, which will be Skully’s Yard Service.



I need to get one of my folding chairs from Mel’s so the boss can sit in it, and then we’re going to try to borrow a mower off someone for the mowing gag. Also have a gag coming with the wheelbarrow that we need to set up. And of course, make the sign.
The man eating plants haven’t made it any further, but hopefully this week they will. I don’t know where all my time is going lately, but so far this year all roads lead to nowhere and I can’t seem to get anything finished. Benji says it’s okay, though.
And for those interested in the yard saga, they are all done and even put grass back on it!


they even seeded the other part that has no green stuff on it. So, yeah, I was impressed.
Okay, that’s what I got.
Have a Halloween is coming kinda day!

Holy wow… that is a lot of decorating lol. Looks like fun and work. Happy Spooky season.
Gee Willikers!! You guys really outdo yourselves, the detail is just amazing! Would love to zip down and see it in action on Halloween night. KUDOS, Earthling!!
We’ll leave landing space for your flying saucer 😉
Yeah, they really went all out this year!
Your decorating is still infinitely better than I end up doing.
We haven’t done much inside the last couple of years. I would have skipped outside last year, but I have several people in town that enjoy it, lol!
Wow! You went all in on the Halloween decor! Love it!
