Happy Halloween

I no longer do Halloween.  The last one I did was at the Burgess Bar where the theme was favorite household item.  I went as duct tape.  Not very scary and ultimately quite warm, as I recall.  I've got a picture of it around here somewhere, but that is not for today.  Like anyone I get the heebie-jeebies whenever I let my imagination roam.  The old haunted house routine is usually quite effective.  I was going to do my own YouTube-type scary movie video but couldn't round up the necessary hands to help me pull it off.  So, here we are, Halloween day.  The sun will be out and no respecting ghost haunts during the daylight hours so you are safe…until nightfall.  Here are some rather creepy home videos to get you started.  Have a great Halloween.  But be careful.  There are spirits about…





















HAPPY HALLOWEEN

Summer Swim

It's Monday and the start of another work week.  Except for me.  I have the week off because the parents of my daycare charges are taking the week off, too. This is one of those wordless posts I love on Mondays so I can put my laziness in full view of loyal readers.  These pics need no words.  Why muddy the waters?   They were taken at the pool at Sinkhole Estates aka Death Valley.  The nice thing about this pool is it is heated in winter.  If one must find positives in one's situation, I suppose that is one.  But, please, no more.

Flashback Friday

Class, Or Lack Thereof The Dwight Vice gravestone in Oquawka, Illinois. I bring this old chestnut out every so often just to remind me that class is classless.  Dwight Vice was killed in his home near Oquawka in 2001.  It was one of those things that can generate crime:  two guys thought Dwight had a lot of money stashed at home because of his pot-selling sideline to supplement his fishing job.   Not really one of those big drug deals gone-bad things.  Marijuana was, according to the trial, about the only stuff Dwight sold.   But these two guys barge into the house and killed Dwight and attempted to kill his 11 year old kid, Darryl, before they took off with what money they could find.   His son, now 23, was stabbed in the back and left for dead.  He survived and is wheelchair bound and has undergone several surgeries to repair his wounds.  He will be paralyzed for life.   None of this is pleasant.  Reading the facts of the murder and attempted murder are most unpleasant
