The green face isn't Hillary.

You could project this DVD on your windows.

Here's an article and video about the haunted house near us. It's amazing ...and free. One year he raised money for our pool (it's just round the corner), and another for a school theter trip to Scotland -the kids were the actors in the graveyard....

here's the vid alone

But if it's free, how did he raise money for those things?

He makes them. And he does it professionally. And used to work for Disney.

No, I meant for the school and for the trip.

Edit: Now that I've watched the video I realize that there's a donation bucket at the end. Never mind.

sorry, i wan't clear, you were right to ask....

Thats the perfect decoration for halloween. How do you go about doing it? I have a huge picture window that would showcase the video perfectly.

You can buy them here, but turn your sound down first.

yup, donation bucket at the end. I would guesstimate from being there that maybe only 50% donate, and they're not aggressive with the bucket at all. So it really is "free". But Robert is well known and well loved and the house is really enjoyed by all in the neighborhood, so those who do donate, donate substantially. Those sort of donations soon add up.

took me a while to figure out what to do with this pumpkin... but the shape of it seemed to ask for something like this:

I need to spend some more time smoothing and shaving it down to make it thinner, but I'll wait until Sunday to do that because it's warm out here, and they rot quickly when you do this. It's coated with oil right now to preserve it. It will glow nicely when lit. I put a couple vent holes in the back and two in the top to let air move through it.

Do the Squirrels eat them too? They do here if we carve them too early. Maybe they become more attractively scented a few days after they are carved, once they start to deteriorate? I think we're carving ours tonight -no swimming, a rare evening at home for two of the three terrors. And the hockey nut only has 90 minutes off-ice practice.

I hope the squirrels here are so full from all the acorns that came off of the White Oak. Holy Hell, what a lot of acorns.
