    I'll stick with the idea of Shaz and whipper snippering. It's much more titillating

    Lucky Stringer. The clouds aren't due to be out of here until late today or tomorrow. We've had a solid week of drizzle.

    Oh, well. It gets the bugs running.

    See how our great conversations curve this way and that way... :D Fun!

    Yep, cold, windy, raining and a lot of 'pea soup' all week with temps in the low 40's. But today... bright sunshine and expecting temps to be around 60 - 63!

    Although that spooky weather fed right into all my Halloween decorating... I have gone all out again this year. I won the award for the village for Halloween decorating last year... now, I am 'bitten.' :eek::D

    It's all about the Pride, Glory and Honor... ya know? :eek::D;):rolleyes::rolleyes:

    I really enjoy doing this, cars stop, neighbors ask me to turn off the howling monsters until Halloween, etc. But I like being creative and it relaxes me a lot...

    Got the whole front of the house going now, with two fog machines, added orange lights for the first time this year, and more... I think that it looks terrific, of course I am prejudice you know :)... hope it shows well in the photos though..

    Yes, I can hunt now in Indiana. I won't shoot you. As much as I have learned that I didn't already know, I think I will be safe enough to distinguish the differences of you and a deer. Haha

    Kind of the same I think Unky (HI!).

    It mainly involves decorating, excuse to have parties, kids dressing up and going around to others homes for candy, me scaring them... them screaming... you know. :o :rolleyes:;):rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Haha you sound like my Dad at Christmas...

    Then one set of lights for outside...
    Then another, and another, and another
    Then inflatable Santas and light up reindeer and rope light trees...

    I think you can see their house from space :D

    I could imagine and that reminds me. I hate winter because of the higher electric bills. Goodbye 50 dollar electric bill, hello 150 dollar electric bill. I need to get off my lazy butt and split some firewood for my wood stove.

    We use a lot of wood in our patio fire pit, you can get a hlf cord here for about $140.00, and they stack it all in the holder.
