The Scarecrows Return. At The New Place...

Look who has turned up at our new place?!?

Welp...it is kind of *our* place.  You'll notice that the house looks a bit different.  We've still living on the same block thanks to my sister and Equation Boy/Man moving overseas for work. They were nice enough to allow us to 'squat' at their place while we figure our housing situation out.  That situation is a long, sad, and open-ended story, so that might be for another post.

But...as you can see, we're making ourselves at home in the form of some Halloween decorations.

Being the first day of October, I thought it was appropriate to show the new home of two of these guys.  I put them up but didn't have time to put up the two little girl scarecrows.  I'll get them up this weekend and then we can try to figure out building a new one for the boy.

This is the sixth year of putting these guys out and with a little bit of spiff'ing up, they're still looking good.

• Last year, I didn't post about the scarecrows, but they were, indeed, out there guarding our front yard.  We were, I'm thinking, too busy prepping/nesting for the arrival of the King of the Ball Tossers.
• Here they are at our old place back in 2013.  
• The scarecrows looked the same out on our old lawn in 2012.  
• In 2011, we added a little girl scarecrow because the Bird was born.  
• And their inaugural season in 2010 when their clothes were fresh and bright.
