It’s been about a week since I’ve had a chance to do anything Halloween related. I’m starting to go through withdrawals. Last weekend was my parent’s 50th wedding anniversary so we drove up to the SF bay area and had a nice party for them. Then I had to travel on business – just got back last night so I’m hoping for a good weekend with cool weather so I can get a lot done.
The mausoleum got rain tested on Tuesday night. We had a rain/thunder/lightening storm here in So Cal. No damage – it held up real good.
I had my Halloween nightmare again last night. It’s very similar to the classic one most students have some time during their school years – you know the one where you show up for class to find there’s a test you didn’t know about or you find out late in the semester that you forgot you singed up for a class and you now have to complete the entire semesters worth of work in one week.
The nightmare was a little different this time, for some dream reason instead of not having anything set up in front of my current home – I was setting up my stuff at the home I grew up in, one I haven’t lived in for 30 years and one I haven’t seen even seen in 15 years. But it was basically the same, it’s twilight on the 31st and I realize I have not set up anything yet. (I usually start setting things up the first weekend in Oct). So in the dream I’m running from thing to thing, first the tombstones then the pop ups then the fence then other props and of course nothing gets setup correctly, everything is falling over and here come the first TOTers and now its dark. Thankfully here is where I wake up to find it’s 3:30 in the morning but still September.
I’ll post some pictures of what I get done this weekend Sunday night.
