Scary Scary Scarecrows #blogboost

I am writing this as a nor'easter has set along the East Coast of the United States.  Although I live inland in the Southern Tier of New York, we are still going to get high winds and lots of rain.  We've gotten a fair amount of rain this morning - it's pouring right now.


This past couple of weeks, Otsiningo Park in Binghamton, New York has had a scarecrow contest.  This has become a favorite, as people visiting the park vote for their favorite.  The voting is over tomorrow and the winner will be announced at a fall festival October 20.

Here are some of the scarecrows.

Around here, this can be quite the scary site, especially on a day after a bad storm.

But some live under water just fine. (Check out the pumpkins on the blue cushion).

Some scarecrows like to camp.

Some like to fish.

But sometimes things go wrong.

And, when all else fails, call Bones from the original Star Trek.  (It's hard to see but they are wearing Star Trek uniforms).

Which one would you have voted for?  If you didn't like any of them, no worries.

Hopefully, more scarecrows later this month.

Does your area do anything like this?
