Ghouls and Fools 2021
by Elouise
Behold my four ghouls
Some greater than others
Designed to affright
disgust or delight
Traditional Irish Jack-‘o-Lantern (above) inhabits
the Museum of Country Life in Ireland
Modern carving of a Cornish Jack-‘o-Lantern
made from a turnip
Modern carving of a North American
Jack-o’-Lantern pumpkin
designed, hand carved and photographed
by my delightfully irrepressible Sister #3, Diane
who died of ALS in February 2006
Happy Halloween, Everybody!
2020 Comment: This old 2017 post is already getting looks, so here it is! The original title was Ghoulish Gallery. The changed title (Ghouls and Fools) is an obscure, slightly hidden archaic reference to our current State of Affairs only two weeks away from the 2020 Election.
2021 Comment: I can’t imagine Halloween without these beauties, and without you! Thanks for stopping by!

What fun, Elouise!
I always enjoy seeing these old “friends”!
We’re looking forward to seeing the small people of our neighborhood this afternoon. I wonder “who” (and “what”) will show up at the front door?

Have fun! I hope the weather stays reasonably dry and mild. We usually don’t get many visitors–thanks to living on a busy highway. 😦
