A huge hay roll, black paint and a Walmart Greeter!!
Yep, right at the entrance to Walmart,
but I don't think she'll keep the job after October 31.
Unless she becomes the Grinch..
That could work.
How about Ballard Park Ducks in costume...
This one puts on his wig.
Beethoven, obviously.
Night of the Walking Duck!!
Warts and and evil eye at your door,
Forget the Raven evermore!
Trick or Treat, Trick or Treat,
Give ME somethin' good to eat!!
Oh, forget it...you think you're sooooo funny.
this is all anyone ever gives me....
Quackers.
P.S. This duck was not harmed or ill in any way,
this is how they always look!
Yes, there's a lot more than one.
Bring more Quackers.
Let's take a look at the Classic Car Show..
Cars dressing up...
 |
| The Dragon. |
 | |
| Casper the friendly 280Z Mazda. |
 |
| Bonnie. Or Clyde. |
Why look, there's sweet Raggedy Ann...
Huge eyed, hair wacked out, grinning like a lunatic...
Adorable.
Looks like a piece of Raggedy Andy in the other seat.
Do NOT touch her hand.
Say hi to Happy Skelly at the drive-in.
Nothing to worry about here...not trying to be adorable,
he knows his part in the show!!
He DOES need to eat though...he's skin and bones without the skin.
P.S. You know you're in the deep South when
there's a Coke and a rifle in the same picture!!
And this one needed to get out of his skin...er...shell.
He's naked out there,
Now that IS creepy.
Hey, we can check out the little County Fair.
Cue the dark rain clouds to roll in.
Cue a little thunder to roll in.
Hey, did anyone tell Lightning to show up??
Oh, it'll show up since we have a Metal Lightening Rod in the sky!!
Okay then,
let's have a foggy morning.
No fog machine required.
Compare to a clear day back in January.
Don't worry about the black smoke,
a bio-diesel tank had just exploded like a bomb away across town.
Yes, really. Our windows shook.
No one was hurt, school was canceled for the day and they rebuilt the thing.
I trust that, right??!!
Okay, let's look at that view in the evening...
Hmmm, there seem to be a lot of leaves on that tree on the right.
But the date stamped says it is the middle of winter.
NOW CLAP YOUR HANDS
AS LOUD AS YOU CAN!!!
They're NOT leaves!!
Alfred Hitchcock LOVES when you clap your hands.
Why did you do what I told you?!!
Okay, back to the foggy, weepy day...
We'll walk out the front door and look to the right...
WOW.
Look at those tie lines on the Mississippi State University sign.
Great engineering.
We'll move in closer...
Closer....
In your face close...
Take a deeeeep breath...
Nope, I never did find the spider who spun this masterpiece.
In case you thought that's what the next picture was going to be.
You'll have to imagine it.
Sometimes that's better than the real thing.
Sometimes not.
Don't walk through the web.
Boo.
Now let's go all traditional...
An uncarved pumpkin.
And what NOT to use to carve it!!
I speak from experience...
See where it says "Now with STRONGER TOOLS?"
HA!!
Back in the day when my best friend and I carved 10 to 15 pumpkins
every Halloween (oh, yeah!), we used sharp knives and potato peelers.
One year we thought it might be easier to use store bought plastic carving tools.
They all shattered!!!
$1.99 totally wasted.
Apparently this is better plastic...bwahahahaha!!
Now the Traditional Black Cat.
Resting on the edge of the hearth.
Waiting for the sun to set and plunge the world into darkness...
Hope you had fun with my Halloween Scenes from around the year...
Any month can be October!!
Hmmmm, what's going on next??
Pretty soon you'll be balancing the moon on top of your Christmas tree!
Thanks for joining me here in cyberspace.
Until next time, laugh as much as possible,
and always look for the best camera angle!
