Getting Ready for Halloween 2010

Its May and most normal people aren't thinking of Halloween; well its a good thing we're not normal people. With only somewhere around 160 days left until Halloween there are a lot of things to be done. We've decided this year's theme will be "All Things Halloween"; with that being said, I still don't like anything 'cute'. Its Halloween damn it, its suppose to be scary.

We plan on building some of those foam tombstones like you see over at the Davis Grave Yard (No relation). That is if we can find the right foam; and a cutting device.

Its almost time to plant pumpkin seeds, we learned a lot from last year. Im going to have to find some squash bug spray, Seven dust doesn't work. I had a lot of college classes in agriculture and have been growing things my whole life; well I mean helping mom grow things; and I couldn't produce any pumpkins for last Halloween. Hopefully this year we will have a bumper crop.

We want to work on the outside more this year than focus on the indoors. We want some skeleton guys playing cards on the front porch and maybe some walking zombies in the grave yard. If we get time and money we will turn the storage shed into a mausoleum.
