Not So Scary Scarecrow
Sarah of Garden City, Michigan emailed to say that while visiting her parents in California this summer, she and her three kids created a scarecrow, fashioned from a suit of her dad's long red underwear. Over his protestations, her kids had a ball helping make the garden guardian. The youngsters thought their commandeering grandpa's union suit was a great joke on him. If they were unaware before, the neighbors now know of grandpa's preference for long red winter underwear! But no fear, grandpa has other union suits he can pull on when the weather becomes cooler this fall.
The face was made from a metal pie plate, the face features from plastic milk bottle tops and yarn for his hair. Perhaps the scarecrow was not scary enough as it did not seem to frighten either the bunnies or the birds away!
