Hi Morgan. Halloween was kinda boring this year for us. everybody is kinda into the pumpkin carving thing every year though. I waited until the last minute yesterday to start on the pumpkin carving. I free-hand drew some awesome images on the pumpkins just looking at some elaborate stencils on the web. One was a witch flying on her broom, and the other was called Talisman...some kinda spooky looking ghoul.
It was almost dark, so I had to get carving. I carved these things out in about 15 minutes each and they turned out better than average. Then I stuck a candle in 'em and propped 'em on the front porch.
The wife and I just stayed home to hand out candy while my daughter went with her uncle & family to a huge haunted house/hayride gig. Not many kids showed up for the free candy, so I guess I'll have a bellyache for a few weeks.
I would've took pics of the pumpkins, but the batteries for my digicam were gone!! My daughter uses it all the time.
I'm off to work now for 3 days, so I'll have to check out your pics when I get home again. Hope everyone had a scarier Halloween than we did!!
Take care.........Perry

awwwwww Perry I feel cheated for you I think it wasnt Talisman rather Taliesin a bard and poet who was reputed to live in Arthurian times. In some circles Taliesin was yet another name for Merlin According to the mythologized version of Taliesin's birth, he began life as boy named Gwion Bach, a servant to the old crone Ceridwen. Ceridwen had a beautiful daughter and an ugly son named Morfran (also called Avagddu), whose appearance no magic could cure, so she sought to give him the gift of wisdom as compensation. Using a magical cauldron, Ceridwen cooked a potion granting wisdom, which had to be cooked for a year and a day. A blind man named Morda tended the fire beneath the cauldron, while Gwion Bach stirred the concoction. The first three drops of liquid from this cauldron gave wisdom; the rest was a fatal poison. Three hot drops spilled onto Gwion's hand as he stirred, burning him. He instinctively put his hand in his mouth, and instantly gained great wisdom and knowledge. The first thought that occurred to him was that Ceridwen would be very angry at him for doing this. Scared, he ran away, but all too soon he heard her fury and the sound of her pursuit.

As Ceridwen chased Gwion, he turned himself into a rabbit. In return, she became a dog. He then became a fish and jumped into a river, and in response, she then turned into an otter. He turned into a bird, and in response she became a hawk. Finally, he turned into a single grain of corn. She became a hen and ate him, and became pregnant. She resolved to kill the child, knowing it was Gwion, but after he was born, he was so beautiful that she couldn't go through with the deed. Instead, she threw him in the ocean inside a leather bag.

so you see Taliesin is an entrenched part of British history
