Smile Florida Haunters informal unofficial tombstone workshop/BBQ

Hey Florida haunters (and South Ga, and anyone else who wants to show up)....

I'm hosting a little get together for the people that can come out to my place for a little tombstone workshop/BBQ. I need more tombstones since I'm replacing mine, and I know some people have never used the insulating foam for making them... so I figured I'd throw it out there to y'all if anyone is interested, that I'm gonna set up shop for the day and crank out some stones. If anyone wants to come out and learn how to make some easy tombstones, how to weather them a'la Ghostess style.. LOL or just to get some free food off the grill and hang out, let me know!

Date: May 17 and 18 (Saturday and Sunday, pick a day that works for you, I'll be working on them all weekend)
Time: 9am til everyone's gone I'll be here all day, so whenever anyone wants to come is fine.
Place: My house, Orange Park FL (PM for details, and it's gated, so you have to give me your last name to get in past the security nazis)


All ya need to bring is a Dremel if you have one, a Xacto knife if you have one, a hot wire foam cutter if you have one, and a couple of dollars for foam (I'm buying several sheets of it and sectioning them into 8 per sheet, can never have too much and that way nobody has to go out and get any if they want to make some). I have 2 Dremels, several Xacto knives, and a couple of wire foam cutters (gonna get more too, love those things), plus we can hook up the paint sprayer to make base coats go much faster.

I can pre-print the templates if anyone has a favorite font, or an epitaph already in their minds as well. I already have a stockpile of grey paint too.

Haunt on!

Sounds like a good time. Wish I could come. I was their a few days ago attending L6S training. Stayed at the Hampton Inn on Youngerman and attended the training at the Howard Johnson’s on Park. : )

Oh shucks....... I'm just another haunter, nothing special. My inspiration isn't usually my own, it comes from all the other great haunters out here.

We had a great time today though, wish y'all coulda been here!
