This is probably why our neighbors across the street have two of these looming over their yard all year

I have two thoughts on that:

  1. Home Depot skeletons so huge, most people don't have any place to store them the rest of the year.

  2. Must be nice to have yard-decorating freedom with no HOA.

I refuse to be subject to an HOA. I do not tolerate petty tyrants.

You're very fortunate to have found ANY home nowadays that's not in an HOA. Hard to find.

It's one of the criteria we gave to our realtor. He was very diligent.

There's a house near me that had two giant human skeletons (but different heights, so it came across as husband and wife), and a dog skeleton, well after Halloween last year. But one by one they disappeared, and all three are gone now. :( It was always fun to glance over at just the right moment while I was riding by on my bicycle.

Edit (several days later): The skeleton dog is back!

What does a skeleton turn into when it dies? A ghost?

I haven't stopped to check.
