Plans for 2010
Now that the holidays are over, It’s time to start organizing my thoughts and plans for the 2010 season. Over the past few months, so many ideas have come to mind. I could not possibly expect to accomplish everything that I’ve told myself I’d like to do for 2010. As luck would have it, my age affords me the ability to completely forget about half of these ideas before they can materialize into an actual plan. Nonetheless, there have been a few things that have come up that I am looking forward to working on.
Site content is a big priority for me, especially for this year. In addition to regular posting, I am planning to complete (or at least get started on) a series of how-to guides, some with accompanying videos. I would also like to add in some other video content (ideas pending). Over the summer months, I hope to visit a few of the older local cemeteries with my Nikon to photograph for both artistic and reference value.
There a few props I’ve planned on completing for the 2010 season, though at this point, I’m not entirely sure which of these will materialize, which will be adapted, and which ones will be scrapped or simply forgotten about. For the time being, I’m planning to complete 3 new Ground-breakers, several Tombstones, and a Vaulted Obelisk that will double as a Fog Chiller. One idea, that has been discussed between my wife and I, is to convert the front portion of the shed into a witch house. I am hoping to complete a theme appropriate Fireplace with a realistic lighted insert as well as a few book/potion shelves for our Witch house. And one final plan, time and resource permitting, will be to create a life size Casket with a full length Rotted Corpse to be set up as a Wake type viewing during our Halloween party. Whether or not this last plan comes to light will be very dependent on the status of the other projects during the summer months.
I hope everyone has had a great Holiday Season, and best wishes for a very good 2010 to all.
