soc_puppet | Decorating

Dad's gone into decorating mode for Halloween, which basically means he's pulling out all the random decorations he's found at garage sales over the years and stuck them over the front yard.

We also have a plaster goose in the front yard that has its own costumes. It's not terribly realistic, though it is roughly goose-sized, and if it had any color other than "plain plaster" (and now "weathered plaster"), it's long gone. Dad has nonetheless tossed a bunch of random stuff over it, not being able to find a Halloween-y enough costume in the goose's costume trunk, and also deputized yours truly to put a more official costume on it.

He specifically said to surprise him. He wants no input and doesn't want to know when it's going to happen, other than "soon".

If you think I'm making it anything other than the Untitled Goose, you are wrong. With any luck, I'll be able to do the painting tonight. I also need to get a bell and a bow, so it can be ready to go tomorrow. I already have a strong magnet to hot glue to the underside of its beak. Operation Bastard is a go.
