I have essentially forced a scenario where the cemetery is just a big box (house on the left, dense hedge to the left, cemetery / projection walls at the back) which allows me to kind somewhat control how much the wind can impact matters. <br /><br />In addition, the leaves that go down to hide the driveway are often damp (and if not, I can always hit 'em with the hose), which really helps the fog cling as it emerges.<br /><br />Anyway, thanks again to everyone for virtually visiting our little corner of Halloweentown! <br /><br />Revenant Manorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977417471926539127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-57598218880198335722022-11-09T13:05:29.390-05:002022-11-09T13:05:29.390-05:00Excellent cemetery packed with tons of cool detail...Excellent cemetery packed with tons of cool details!!!
