The visitors were knitting superstar Knitterotica & Mr. knitterotica. It took LOTS of self-control not to sneak Sam & Dean into the guest room to greet them when they awoke. Honestly the only thing stopping me was it being our 1st time meeting IRL. I’d definitely do it now. 😈 #IndianaBones&Friends

Maybe it’s projection on my part, but I swear these two always look like they’re having the time of their undead lives no matter where you leave them. In this case, they’d just been tucked away in this bin to contain clutter because we had guests visiting for the weekend. #IndianaBones&Friends

From a neighbor’s yard 4 years ago. These two aren’t part of our skeleton crew, but this picture always makes me laugh. #IndianaBones&Friends

The SkeleBoys always look forward to pumpkin custard season at the Dairy Godmother. I don’t know why, honestly, because dairy just goes right through them. (2016 image, this Alexandria storefront has changed somewhat over time). #IndianaBones&Friends

The MVCS caboose outta be on the list of best places to cry in ALX. I’ve seen so many kids, & more than a few adults, sobbing here. If toddlers had yelp, the caboose would get top marks for tantrums. Fortunately, Sam & Dean were in good spirits the day we let them stop & play. #IndianaBones&Friends

A pair of plastic halloween skeletons "play" on a parked decommissioned red train caboose. They're standing at the back of the car. The one wearing Black hunter boots pretends to steer. The one in the black knit cap hangs on for dear life.

Sam & Dean are named after the demon-hunting brothers of the TV show Supernatural, so Hunter boots were both the logical & practical solution for the plastic skeleton who wants to commit to a recurring sight-gag while also looking good & not flopping over or face-planting. #IndianaBones&Friends

A pair of plastic human halloween skeletons on a playground on a bright and sunny afternoon with blue skies and fluffy white clouds overhead. One skeleton sits in a blue swing, wearing a black knit cap on his head. The other skeleton stands behind the swing in a pair of black kneehigh rainboots.

When Sam & Dean moved in, they were homebodies. When they weren’t playing Tomb Raider, they liked to read. No surprise they were partial to @colindickey.com#IndianaBones&Friends

A pair of skeletons sit on an ikea couch with a dramatic black and white textile cover. They have a beer, a game controller and a copy of Tomb Raider.

Time to start a thread! I’ll add pics of our plastic skeleton crew every day til Halloween. Sam & Dean’s antics began in 2016. 12 foot skeleton Indiana Bones debuted in 2020. They’ve made new friends this year. We’ll get to them when we get to them - keeping it simple. #IndianaBones&Friends
