Georgia Porches - Halloween in the South

Two contributors to these pages, Phillips Raines and Rick, the News Guy, are in the Deep South, or, since we're talking the Atlanta area, that may be the New South. The photos below are from Phillips Raines, the writer, master mason and professional musician. You can put those in any order you wish. He's a master at all three, and a photographer. Here are Georgia porches, this Halloween.

"This house has pumpkins on the gable of an arched lattice porch. The sinister cats were props at a Kiss concert but have been put to work every Halloween for at least a decade. Usually little children must wait to trick or treat here because the cats are just too scary." - PR


	The front porch of Rick, the News Guy, as Phillip notes, most likely decorated by his wife, the CNN executive - "Note the balance of caution tape and spider webs juxtaposed by the architecture." There is, however, no scary Wolf Blitzer.


	A masonry note - "Behind a cats cradle of wires this two story porch rest beneath one of my chimneys built for a neighbor just a few doors up the street."
