This picture was when the wind briefly started blowing away from the house. Most of the time the front of the house was completely engulfed. It was pretty hard to navigate while half in the bag so we had to move out a bit. The fire dept drove by and I was sure they were going to tell us to knock it off because we were fogging up the whole cul-de-sac, but they just stopped and told us it was awesome.

I made the larger gravestones on my CNC with insulation foam, but she designed all the layout and collected all the pieces while we both worked on the setup. Since I'm newly retired I have a lot more time to engage in such things.

decorate their houses each Halloween. A couple with sets and displays puts them up each year, free of charge, and stores the aerials too. The houses (over 20) are incredible. One has tombstones like this house. Since I live in a Blue area the tombstones are usually of evil GQP reps, present and past. A lot of the houses have a slightly political undertone, which I love of course.
