Not Even Halloween is Recession Proof in Alexandria's Del Ray Neighborhood

One of our neighbors at 210 Monroe Avenue in Alexandria's Del Ray neighborhood has taken Halloween decorating to a whole new level with this "vivid" depiction of events of the past year or so in the financial markets.

As much as I like to take the "high road" I have to admit that the image of Bernie Madoff makes me chuckle and I think the little pigs are really appropriate.

Thanks to one of our regular subscribers for alerting us to these great images. Stay tuned tomorrow for scenes from the Del Ray Halloween Parade.

Hi Michael, I love all the decorations. Much more reality based than the usual ghosts and goblins. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Liz. These folks always do a great job but this year was particularly creative.

Very creative decorating. Those scenes might not frighten the children, but they sure have for the rest of America.

Exactly. I thought it was a great spin on "scary" things.
