Creepy Halloween!It's Halloween in Grand Isle and apparently, it will be a creepy one since they are staying in the Bates Motel! OK, not really. They are staying in the Sand Dollar Hotel, which is probably pretty nice since Grand Isle is known as the Cajun Bahamas and is, under normal circumstances, a beautiful vacation spot.
BUT, Brain being what he is, put up an electric sign that reads "Bates Motel" just to add some fun?? to the trip. (someone emailed me the pic I've posted here)
Halloween is also known as All Saints Day. In Grand Isle they are a bit concerned because typically on All Saints Day the priest will go around and bless the graves BUT when Katrina hit many of the graves were opened and many coffins are now missing - no joke! That would definately make for a creeeeepy Halloween.
Today they work at the community center and then will have the Halloween party for the children on Grand Isle this evening. Brian is supposed to call with an update after the party so check back later for more ....
And here's one last pic they sent. Cute ain't he??

:(
It's definintely outside my tradition but why would a priest be blessing the graves anyway. I don't quite get that.
