The Atlanta Botanical Gardens does an exhibit around this time of year, where “professionals” and “non-professional” (read: companies and private parties) construct scarecrows, to be put on display throughout a large section of the gardens. For the second year in a row, I helped out with construction of Jen’s company’s scarecrow, the Pintrest Pixie.
The event itself was kind of nice, and a little bit symbolic of the changing of the seasons, because it’s not dreadfully hot, the sun begins setting a lot quicker, but there’s still beer to drink, and lots of people to watch.
And for what it’s worth, I thought the quality of the other scarecrows wasn’t as mundane as some of them were last year.
