    Well this is what I have so far. This is all I dare to put up. I'm just so scared that something will be ripped off or destroyed. I still have all the leaves that will hide the wires of my flood lights. More cobweb static and animated props. skulls on the sticks along with creepy clothe. This is just the base of it. Now its starting to sprinkle outside so kinda worried but I think what I have outside wont hurt in the rain. Even though everything is not up I feel a little better I got some stuff up. The rest will probably go up Thursday or Saturday before Halloween. This will be the 1st time I put stuff up before Oct. 31st.



    This time I wont have my mad scientist scene under our carport. Usually we have our trailer in storage but this year its at our house. So now I need to figure out where to put that along with my Witches area.



    The front window will be running Hallowindows I - IV

    Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth-shattering KABOOM!!

    Congrats on putting stuff out early....I know how stressful that can be as I'm carrying a few things back in every night.

    BTW: don't worry about the rain....worry about the wind

    I am glad I am not the only one carries props back and forth.

    Love what you have done so far.

    Well everything has been taken down due to winds hitting 21mph + The only thing up are my posts and the dowels that held up the tombstones and my skeleton reaper dude who I can't take down until my husband gets home. I don't recall having winds this time of year here in Southern California not like this. Winds are suppose to last til Tuesday afternoon. So Maybe Ill put stuff back up Thursday and see how things go. I found 2 tombstones on my neighbors yard It would of been further if I waited any longer just as I was going to pick it up a major gust came and almost blew it out of my hands.

    rain and snow oh man sorry to hear. I dealt with rain last night but that was ok it was the wind that did it in. I guess thats what we go through when putting up early lucky I didn't put EVERYTHING up. So taking down wasn't to bad

    Looking good and I love how you hid your hose ! At least I think that is your garden hose being hidden lol
    Almost every job I do ends the exact same way. Some whimper. Some cry. Some even laugh

    Very Good... that exactly what we are trying to do. I hate that thing but hubby has it hooked to the house so I had to have a way to hide it.

    Wind is still going crazy. My reaper is all over the place but as soon as hubby gets home down it comes I hope its not to beaten up while its up there.
