what a fun shadow box. I got a chuckle out of your title. I thought of you immediately when it showed the snow storm on the news. Our big storm hits Tuesday; predicting 4" of rain - should be turning into a huge storm for you about Friday?

I love the dancing bones. Everything is always so colorific when I come here. It sure does brighten my day. It's getting a little chilly out lately and we are supposed to be getting some kind of storm with strong gusts of wind, so they say. Hope you are better now and my shrine is just about set up. I've only added a few things to it this year. Have a great week.

Love dem dancing bones...
There will be five cigar box shrines coming from Rochester. I was side tracked this weekend just posted my Dia de los Muertos inspired paper mache skulls.
I'm getting in the mood.
Hope your staying warm. :)
