tell me a story where you don't come home
kime and i found this doll today near the coffee shop. since we had already seen bad foot two days in a row on the foot doctor sign we decided against touching it. the last thing we need is ANOTHER harbinger of bad luck.
it did remind me that i neglected to post the creepy photos from the boat ride i never wrote about in mexico. we took some gondolas out into some canals and came across these on a patch of land. the story goes that for 25 years a man was being haunted by the ghost of a little girl that had died in the swamp. he tried to appease her by pulling dolls up out of the canals and adjacent swamp and hung them all over his house and trees. i didn't make it to the house in the swamp, but these were creepy enough until i have time to go back.















dude. this is terrifying. are these the evil children of the mannequins? is that why they're HUNG IN A FOREST?!

I'm telling you it's like DOLL Vietnam War Carnage.
I'm scared. You captured them and now you must pay. Better watch out living in those trees yourself, yikes

I'd think twice before messing with that stuff again. Doubt that any of us gringos possess the kind of magic needed in case those babys
decide they are hungry.
