After midnight on Halloween night, the wind finally subsided. Then the rain began. But by noon yesterday, it was over and was replaced by unseasonably warm sunny weather. Perfect for dis-assembling and packing away the outdoor Halloween display. The graveside mourners looked quite comfortable on their bench in the cemetery and weren't pleased when asked to move on.
By late afternoon, the front yard had returned to its pre-Halloween form. And the occasion was marked with a cup of tea and leftover chocolate bars. Not sure how many. Let's just say, "several".
Today, the focus shifts to the indoor display. Followed once again by the now traditional tea and chocolate bars.

"Let's just say several"...I could utter the very same sentiments today as well :D
I loved your displays and each of your amazing posts leading up to Halloween. I adore your blog and knowing that it will be here to feed my need for All Hallows all the way until the next 31st of October rolls around.
Big hugs, my friend!

Thanks everyone :)
FQ - Yes, tea and chocolate. One of life's great partnerships :D
They look as though they were having such a nice and civil conversation. It seems wrong to interrupt them.
Another year come and gone. I still need to break down the items in the living room. But first I have to reorganize the basement storage area.
*sigh*
It's over all too quickly, GF. Sounds like you had an interesting season though :)
HS: I think that is a very accurate statement :) I need a vacation from it all. Really successful but a challenge!
We still have our decorations up. LOL I'm reluctant to put them away. :)
