The rain held off

We lucked out tonight. It was sprinkling very lightly after we opened but stopped pretty quickly. The rest of the night was a very nice night for the Graveyard. The park closed early and stopped selling tickets at 10 and the last group left a little after 10:30. It didn't stop raining until 12 as a few of us who shuts down the show were leaving.

We had some excitement when the power went out twice. A breaker in one of the Compounce buildings feeds power to over 3/4 of the show and it decided to trip twice. We aren't sure why it trips since none of the breakers in the show trip but we suspect it happens when a bunch of compresses come on at the same time. It happens very very rarely though and we get the power back on in less than a minute.

We continued to improve the show through out the week. The Manor facade received some new mannequins in the windows and the funeral precession between Catacombs and the cemetery grew larger. The Cemetery path was also lit a little better.

We are expecting big crowds tomorrow since last Saturday was rained out and the weather today might have kept some people away. The weather is going to be perfect so it should be a very nice night to come out.
