Happy Halloween (part 1)

It's now Halloween!!! This is one of my favorite holidays, so I'll be posting lots of stuff today.

For starters, you can watch a great video of someone telling the story of The Cremation of Sam McGee by Robert Service. Have you ever heard of it? I was introduced to this tale at our recent MCC fall retreat and it's a good one!

It's interesting that the tone of this tale can be changed drastically from one teller to the next. When I heard it the first time, it was done in a sort of silly, goofy way. But with this guy's voice and sound effects, it's a bit spooky!
