halloween night

At least it didn't rain. But it was windy. Very windy.



It was so windy, the jack-o-lanterns took shelter on the porch until the last minute.



It was so windy, I was going to snap this, the only un-staked tombstone, in two if I had to rush to secure it one more time.



It was so windy, candles were repeatedly extinguished and re-lighting them became futile.



It was so windy, the mourners shuddered violently on their cemetery bench.



Nonetheless, they remained stoic throughout the evening.



It was so windy, it made taking photographs difficult. Sometimes impossible.



But at least it didn't rain.

Those pumpkins look scared to death, huddled in the corner like that.

Oh my, that sounds windy enough to have awoken the departed! :D Fortunately as you said though, the rains stayed at bay so at least the festive evening was a dry one for you. Hopefully next year the weather will be more cooperative for you, dear.

Thank you deeply for your immensely kind comment about my Halloween outfit. I hope you're having a terrific week!

Big hugs,
♥ Jessica

It was so windy that even in Quebec we could saw flying tombstones.

Nice pictures!
