Harvest and Halloween at Cuba businesses

Huddle House showed its Halloween spirit inside and out. These Halloween table decorations caught our eye. on a recent visit.

Victorian Manor Assisted Living went all out to display a welcoming entrance at their building. Cornstalks, straw bales, flowers, and more made a colorful display for residents and visitors. 

American Family Insurance used a pumpkin and some fall flowers to brighten up Franklin Street.

Hayes Shoe Store on Washington/Route 66 used a jack o lantern, some straw, and and the Sock Monkeys with Cardinal hats to draw the eye to their display windows.

A Lasting Impression on E. Washington used an eye for design to create a festive appearance.

Connie’s Shoppe at the Wagon Wheel Motel used wreaths and other harvest decorations to make the entrance attractive. The Wagon Wheel Motel is the oldest motel on Route 66.

The historic Wallace House venue gets the prize for the largest pumpkin. The Wallace House can be rented for special events. 

Cuba’s Mobil also got on board for some seasonal decor.

Huddle House had the traditional straw, flowers, and scarecrows. However, the restaurant also had hand-painted scenes on the windows. We were told that a 3rd shift cook and his girlfriend put in the time to create the spooky scenes. Huddle House also had numerous decorations on the inside.

Palnts-R-Us on Highway DD probably wins the prize (if there was one) for the most seasonal decorations. Of course, they may have an advantage since at this time of year their inventory is bursting with pumpkins, straw, and mums.
