Kind of reminds me of my childhood. My father managed National Cemeteries for 30 years. We lived in the Cemetery too, although our house was much bigger, ha ha .... big even by US standards. I don't think they have superintendents living on-site anymore. I know they've tore down the last cemetery house I lived in, I think they've torn down all of them.

Ray,

I think a Halloween party at a cemetery is called DINNERTIME!   :o

Hey pig,

People live in the cemeteries where I live too. Although they are nowhere near that crowded. There are some very nice family mausoleums , with aircon, and refs here that I would live in!  ;) Mostly Chinese-Filipinos...I guess I will have to change my name. I will try to get some pics on All Soul's Day.

When it comes to decorating graves and/or memorials to dead loved ones in the home, nobody does it as well as the Mexicans!....and often with a little humor mixed in. Yes sir, those Mexican skeletons know how to party.

Hey Michael,

You aren't kidding! They really know how to do it! I think the Filipinos learned a lot from the Mexicans, with all the years they were governed by "New Spain." All holidays are celebrated with firecrackers which they probably got from the Chinese...yes including Christmas.

Here is video of a Filipino Christmas song sung by Willie Revillame,featuring some nice Filipina dancers for Ray!   :o "Boom tarat tarat" is a Filipino sound for fire crackers.  (Dogs here go "WOW WOW!")  ;D

That put me in the mood for some South Korean pop. I can't stand most Korean dudes, but many of the ladies are cute and quite friendly.
