My 2 Cents: Where’s That Graveyard Fence?

It’s a bit unnerving to walk by Forest Cemetery
after dark of late b/c the chain-link fence is gone. Yeah, I know that chain-link isn’t a good barrier against ghosts and goblins that might want to get out. But it’s reassuring nonetheless. A pedestrian can’t accidentally step off the sidewalk onto a grave w/a chain-link fence in the way. But Cemetery Director Doug Eastwood assures Huckleberries Central that a new fence is on the way, a picket-like one that befits a cemetery better than a chain-link one. He’d hoped to have the fence up before Halloween. But that’s not going to happen. It’ll stretch between the basalt pillars now in place, with a 4-inch post every 8 feet. Meanwhile, you’ll simply have to whistle a happy tune to chase off willies as you past the graveyard. Or use the other side of Government Way.

Question: What gives you the willies?
