Day 4 Build

Where does the time go? Finshed the facade in the front yard, so the front is nearly finshed. The only major task remaining is the garage build and the Pepper's ghost, the plans for which are completely in my skull and not even sketched out on paper yet. I scrapped a pretty cool plan I had for one of the door ways on the north side due to time constraints. The wall panels for the east side are there and waiting for a quick assembly, but I'm still playing with ideas for how I am going to meat them out this year. I have plans for a very intense scare on the east side, so I want something durable on those walls in case someone tries to escape by climbing over them like happened last year by the electric chair, but I don't want to use anything as heavy and expensive as plywood. I will probably save it for last.
I'm pretty much set on the idea that the pet cemetery will be semi-retired this year. Given the intensity of the scare I have planned on that east side, I doubt anyone will be of a presence of mind to look at or even notice that cemetery in the back. I know this will disappoint some people, but they will be too busy changing their pants to complain after what I have in store.
I'm getting a little help on Friday and Staurday. That will be great just to get some of the painting and other labor intensive tasks done. Good stuff. I'm so tired....why in the hell is it still 90 degrees out 10 days before the end of October? It's not natural!

Thanx for putting up the mural in the front yard with the website on it. Even though I am seeing the progress on a daily basis (while delivering your mail!) and seeing all your hard work every day, we are looking forward to the finished production. Keep up the good work. The website is awesome. R.
