Nothing to show but a teaser if you will: the items for my victim have all been gathered and they will go out to him/her in the next couple of days.

Then they can share their ill-gotten gains.

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!

Got my gift today! An inflatable candy bowl, a lovely drinking cup decorated with cats, and CANDY!

But best of all was a very cute Halloween card, with a wonderfully eerie poem.

At midnight, in the month of June,
I stand beneath the mystic moon.
An opiate vapor, dewy, dim,
Exhales from out her golden rim,
And softly dripping, drop by drop,
Upon the quiet mountain top,
Steals drowsily and musically
Into the universal valley.
The rosemary nods upon the grave;
The lily lolls upon the wave;
Wrapping the fog about its breast,
The ruin moulders into rest;
Looking like Lethe, see! the lake
A conscious slumber seems to take,
And would not, for the world, awake.
All Beauty sleeps!—and lo! where lies
Irene, with her Destinies!
(from The Sleeper, by Edgar Allan Poe)

My reaper remained anonymous, but I would like to thank you very much for the gift and the considerate card.

Pictures tomorrow night!

Sounds yummy, maybe there are more gifts to come, thats why they are anonymous, otherwise everyone should put their names on them, just a thought. :roll:

WOW, ramaries69, what a great hall!!


Mine Victim will have to wait till the end of the week, I got the flu last week and came home to a water main break in our front yard, and of course we have to pay for it on top of our basement being flooded, UGH!!!! But with that being said I was almost done with the gift a few days ago so I really just have to add the final touches, I am soo sorry it's going to be a little late!!!!!! :cry:

Wow...you guys are right on the ball!!!!.... I just logged on to say my package just left the
mailbox with the mailman just minutes ago!!
Woohoo! One of my favorite times of the year! I love to see what everyone got.

Witchy...sorry about your leaks and the illness! We had a huge storm here on Saturday, and
sustained a little damage; but nothing like that.

I think that I speak for everyone in California when I say that even if it causes a little damage, a storm would be most welcome.

We're under a heat advisory until tomorrow night and its been hovering around 85 for the past couple of days.
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,

Withcy, sorry about the leak and the flu. Hope things are looking up now. And whoever got you is really lucky. I loved the stuff you sent last year.

I have to beg a bit of an indulgence. I have everything purchased and am about to box it up, but won't be able to get to the post office until next week. But it will be shipped next week. Sorry to my victim, I hope the wait is worth it. :)
We're the farmer's scarecrows
We scare away the birds,
We keep the farmer's corn safe
Without any words.
But when Halloween comes
We jump out of the ground
And we scare the boys and girls
When they come walking 'round.
