This year's costume is cat ears and a tail. It may be lame, but it's easy.

I have two costume options when passing out candy to the Trick-or-Treaters: The Elvis costume is always popular and can also be used year-round. Example: My neighbor made the poor decision of upgrading his garage door opener recently to include a video camera. He then requested I drop off his mail in his absence. This was a huge mistake on his part...



...as backup there's the Rick Astley Costume. This goes over very well with the Millennial Parents. It's always great to see them doubled over in laughter, realizing that I'm Rick Rolling Halloween. I have NGGYU on a loop for the Outdoor Speakers.

My neighbors (about a mile away) display.
Almost every one of them has a fan to keep it inflated.

The skeletons are getting old and falling apart. I took some pieces and made a child smacking stick. The dogs took it away from me though.

I've been spending more time in NYC lately for reasons...

78th St UES, aka Billionaires Row.

I was told most of these were installed by pros from the film industry, set designers etc..















This one was wild...

They had a winch that raised and lowered the skeletons on the ladder







And I can see the Stay Puffed Marshmallow man from my yard
