It was fun watching the guys celebrate together! 

I think this Frankenstein made by my girlfriend Barb is one of my favorite Halloween decorations.  Every year I can't wait to add him to our front garden bed - it has become his home each fall since Barb made him many years ago.  She has since moved to Florida and I hope one day she will rekindle her woodworking projects because they were always the best!
