The Day Before All Hallows Eve

Susan and I have been working all week in preparation for Halloween. We had about 12 pumpkins to carve and lots of props to get out of storage.

I think we are in pretty good shape for the big day tomorrow. It's a Friday this year so we are expecting a big crowd. The wrench in that monkey is the possibility of rain.

We have still been experiencing an unprecedented Autumn season of warm weather and lovely, mild days. We have not had a freeze yet.

But rain threatens to fall in the late afternoon to early evening.

Here's a couple of pictures of the set up.

 Those are our real pumpkins. We still have about 20 synthetic pumpkins we put out every year.

I am taking the day off from work tomorrow and Susan is off at noon. With the help of a couple of friends, we should be ready for the onslaught by dusk.
