Scarecrow Day's


From a scene out of Blazing Saddles, a small Georgia town re-creates themselves. I don't know who thought of this idea, but we have an idea it was a young blonde headed women about five and 1/2 feet tall with wooden legs. Well, that is what her scarecrow looked like. You will see her likeness along with all 4, 327 of the other town people as the Roberts family (+) one, took a ride to Hoschton yesterday. We toured the entire city looking at the creation of the new World's Record display of scarecrows. The town set out to display more than the old record of thirty three hundred. After a month and several weeks, the town is close to having 5,000. Yes, we did stop for ice cream at "Little Hooties" an icon and one of only two entertainment hotspots in this less than 1/4 mile length town. A blast was had by all, and yes, there was a scene that reminded us that we were not in Kansas anymore. See if you can find it.... For a close up view of all 4327 stick people, visit http://gallery.me.com/troberts_vp and choose Scarecrow day. You can also view the other events that have taken place the last ninety days.
