RE: Home Security Cameras
I purchased both the black and white and color surveillance cameras from Harbor freight the less expensive black and white is far superior in picture and sound, they both have night vision but the color has tunnel vision at night they both come with a 100 foot cord which will either plug straight into your TV or recorder, mine is a VCR and I use an 8 hour tape, I turn it on every night it 10:00 p.m. it runs until a little after 6:00 a.m.

My neighborhood has opossums, raccoons, skunk's, 5 foxes and 3 coyotes and I caught it on tape when my neighbor's house was broken into, unfortunately was after the fact when I've watched the tape. You really can recognize people within 25 ft. and the sound is very clear.

I initially bought the cameras to tape my haunted house on Halloween and that was a very big success last year covered the whole area both picture and sound

RE: Halloween Party Games
What about an indoor scavenger hunt, divide the girls up into 2 or 3 groups depending on how many guests you have now give them a different list of things to collect from and give them plastic jack a lanterns to collect them in.

You could give each 1 a spider ring and they will lose it to the person who catches them scratching their nose and the 1 with the most spiders gets a special prize.

Dont let the children know ahead of time asked the parents of the guest to give you a photo of their child when they were very young in a Halloween costume and mount them on a board and the 1 who gets the most correct gets a prize.

RE: Getting Rid of Cobwebs
The way I keep my spiders under control is when I'm chasing down the cobwebs I use a plastic bristle broom and I give it a very light mist on the very end of the bristles with an insect spray which kill spiders, when I sweep at the cobwebs I make sure I touch the wall or the ceiling, I'm doing two things a onetime, getting rid of the cobwebs and putting killer just where the spiders are and not my whole room, this is worked very well for me. ...

RE: Separating Fruit Trees That are Growing Close Together
For the last several years they've been recommending planting 3 fruit trees in 1 hole to conserve space, I have 2 sets of 3 trees and all are doing well so don't worry about it just leave them as they are, if you're getting fruit and good growth don't bother disturbing them. ...

RE: Peeling Ripe Peaches
I don't know if it was just my Peaches or if this will work on all Peaches, when they were nice and ripe, I would cut them in half, when I would Cut them in half then twist and have 2 halves, in the peace with the seed I can peel the skin off with a sharp knife from the tip to the stem then I would cut the other half in quarters and do the same, I do not cut in the groove I would cut on the side so when you twisted it apart half of the seeds stuck out to hold onto. I did not have to dip them in hot water if there was a spot where the skins stock I would just rub the back of the knife over that area to break the tissue between the skin in the peach and it peeled off quite easily. ...
