Dia de los Muertos All Souls Day Day of the Dead

Good Morning Gentle Readers,

TWC is off to the cemetery to dig up some relatives for a picnic. Nice day for it, too. Sunny with warm breezes and views to eternity (pun intended). Prolly shoulda saved that mash up video of corpse bride for today (goin' to a party where no one's left alive). No matter.

 

Jake was pretty proud of his pumpkin carving skills

Halloween is now the second most popular holiday too-do in America. That was fairly apparent as the TWC family made the rounds, starting with Jim & Karla's cemetery and ending up at a homemade haunted house that the proprietors had spent the better part of two weeks getting ready.

The Boy is the one who looks like he escaped from Stephen King's It.

As Ever,

TWC

Wednesday Addams? I always loved those movies, and now that I'm older I realize it as a sort of ingenious way of teaching people how to accept people of other cultures. Sure, they're strange, but they love each other just as much as you do your family, albeit in different ways that are often misunderstood. That's my take on it, anyway.

Great get-ups guys! That looked fun!

Thanks Danny. The House Blond walked around saying: Are your Girl Scout cookies made from real Girl Scouts? half the night. Makes me LOL every time, that gag just never gets old.

Good observation and I think you're right about the lesson from the movie.
