Call of the Ginger Siren!

In Florida, we rarely have cold fronts, especially during the fall.  We have cool fronts.  This is a special and magical time when the fairies dance, the children sing, the dog licks the mailman and going outside becomes an absolute joy.  I've seen it happen; there is a spring in the step of passersby and people are more friendly and less likely to complain if they have to wait in line.  People are also more likely to tip....

My painful stint of penniless thrill-seekers took the night off!  I had a group of 17 and they were so fun, laid-back and quick to ask really insightful questions.  Perhaps they vibed well with the sassy, ginger vixen that was their tour guide.  (see below)

The tour was great, we found some energy readings with my handy EMF detector and I got to tell all the stories plus a few extra.  I love getting to tell the extra, unscheduled  stories!  It helps me to connect more with my groups.  Through haunted theatres, burial grounds and long-forgotten graveyards we marched.  I came home feeling quite invigorated and playful.  (see ginger siren below)


How could you not love a face like that?  No, seriously, how?  I'm still trying to find new ideas to improve my make-up skills.   

It's nights such as these that make me happy to be a Floridian, a story teller, a tour guide, a girlfriend, a writer, a pet owner and an artist.  As many people can tell you, being any of those things isn't easy all the time.  It's moments and days such as these that make me revel in being who I am.
Best to you all!


Until next time,
