Local Saturday - Scarecrow Contest #blogboost

I had blogged Thursday about a scarecrow contest being held in one of our local parks.  The winner of this contest will be announced tomorrow, and the scarecrows will be taken down Monday.

Halloween Pilgrims?  A holiday mashup?
People with disabilities have fun, too.  OPWDD is a New York State agency - the Office of People with Developmental Disabilities.
This scarecrow is One in a Minion.
Wonder what he or she is doing?

ACHIEVE is another agency that works with those with developmental and other disabilities. Some people are afraid of those with disabilities.  It's hard to see, but this scarecrow man is holding a tray of chocolates.

So, as Forrest Gump said, "My mom always said "life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're gonna get.”  Isn't that true.  None of us can predict what will happen tonight, or tomorrow.

 But while we are here, we can also enjoy the beauty of this world, and (for us in the Northern Hemisphere) the beauty of the fall season.

What scarecrow will win?

    I have no idea who will win, but of this batch I like those around the campfire the best. People are afraid of people with disabilities? I guess they don't get out much, for the world is made up of them.
