    A neighbor saw me today working in the yard and she stopped her car. She got out and said you are the Halloween house. I smiled and told her yes I am. We talked a bit about her kids loving to TOT at my place and asked what my new plans were.

    I told her I was building a pumpkin patch and she said "Oh I have a few of the biiiiig hard plastic pumpkins with the C7 light in them. Would you want them for your patch" ....now my face lit up.....BLOWMOLDS!!!!!!!

    Yes yes yes!! I asked how much she wanted for them and she refused any cash. She is swinging them by tomorrow!

    Anyway I am pumped about more JOL especially in blow mold form. I will post pics as soon as they arrive. Its just nice that we still have people in the neighborhoods that crave Halloween as much as we do.

    What a nice neighbor you have! Can't wait to see the pictures of what she brings you. Last night someone I know offered me some pumpkin pails that they wanted to get rid of. Sure, I take any and all Halloween stuff. I'll get them next week. Don't have a clue what I'll do with them yet.

    That's great. My next door neighbor (and parents of my daughter's "BFF") loathe Halloween. Wish someone would stop by my house and unload their goodies.

    That's awesome of her! I think it's great that you know at least some people really appreciate what you do.

    There is only one bad thing about the gift...I have to be patient until tomorrow! HAHA Thanks for the compliments. My mind is running wild about what pumpkins she may have. She also thought she had another blow mold and said she would grab it if she did however she couldnt remember what it was. Curiosity is eating at me

    Living in the UK we get trick or treaters but not many people do their homes up. I turned my lower floor into a haunted hospital last year so I am hoping that a few more of the neighbours get into the "spirit" of things!! This time of year always makes me want to jump across the pond to visit you guys!!!!
