Dia de los Muertos? –

Anybody celebrate this? I live in the Southwest so I've been hearing a bit about it. I did celebrate it the year before we moved out here. I didn't make sugar skulls or anything but I did make a list of those who had passed away the previous year, and family members who had died at some other point, and remembered them and burned a candle.
In a weird sort of way, it extended the "observation" aspect of Halloween for me, though I thought of it as a more serious, introspective day. Maybe along the lines of Yom Kippur or All Soul's Day.
Anyone else out there? What are your traditions if you do celebrate this?
