Sunday afternoon I was working on taking down the rest of my Halloween decorations. I noticed some of it was getting worn out. I was thinking to myself that I am 75% percent sure my Halloween activities will never be this way again. They are getting old and I am not sure I want to replace them. I have been thinking about scaling back.
Then about 2:30pm the emergency sirens went off. Most times I just ignore them. This time I had a bad feeling. I packed up my tools, grabbed my ipad and went to the basement. I was checking the weather on my ipad when the power went out.
At a little after 3:00pm we came up from the basement and I was 100% sure Halloween would never be the same. The walls of the crypt were destroyed. The flag pole and the flagpole demon were on the ground. I had hoped to keep the Crypt and retire most of the rest of the large decorations.
We did not get our power back until over 24 hours later. The following pictures are of the remains of the Crypt and some of the many trees than went down in my neiborhood.
We were very lucky. Thing could have been much worse. There much more severe damage on all sides of us.
