Pumpkins, skeletons, and ghosties

Posted on by William Douthwaite

Lots of Halloween decorations to see on my daily walk. I’ve noticed that most pumpkins are pretty happy, having a good time. A few look evil or surprised. Friendly ghosties and skeletons are popular. A few giant spiders on giant spiderwebs round out the yard art this year.

My favorite was the eight-foot tall pumpkin, inflated and smiling from early evening through to the next morning. It’s huge, and the edges of his smile look like a handlebar mustache.

A few yards had some purple and orange lights this year.

This flying bat was pretty cool

Halloween around the neighborhood

Posted on by William Douthwaite

On my many walks around the neighborhood, I captured the variety of Halloween yard decorations. Here are a few observations:

  • Pumpkins ruled this year. Creative jack-o-lanterns abound. Most are happy, some are scared, and of course, some are cats.
  • Creepy decorations include the scary clown, a floating hand, zombies, and a giant skeleton trying to control a couple of dog skeletons. (Skeletons were a close second to pumpkins this year.)
  • Cute ghosts and Buc-ee round out this year’s decorations near us and around our son’s Texas neighborhood.

So where do you store all this stuff the other eleven months of the year?
