It's always sad once the state fair opens in Minnesota
because it pretty much closes the door to summer.

Welcome 2017 Minnesota State Fair
and
The Scarecrow edition
If you want to know what's happening in the hearts and minds of a place
then go to the fair and view their scarecrows.
They are always reflective of the current events.

Note: No pails (or kitchen gadgets) have been harmed in any of these scarecrow creations.

Are you keeping track of the number of pails?
I CD your eyes!

It's all up to us.
Learn, listen, hear, read and learn some more.

As a matter of fact I do cook, sew, I hold the record in threading a needle and cook some more.
Don't forget to step outside away from the scarecrows.
You'll find a path to the looking glass,
and enjoy a cup of tea with the Mad Hatter.

Hello, I loved all the scarecrows. It looks like some people are very creative, I could pick a favorite. I loved them all. Fun photos, happy weekend!
Haha! What a fine selection of scarecrows Karen, I counted six buckets that I could see 😀 love the twist of Putin's face on the 'make America great again' scarecrow, very clever!
Beautiful pics even though it heralded sadly a close! Would be fun being there Karen!

Scads of fun photos. Kudos
My favorite? Queen of Hearts - hands down.
And the one with the spools of thread for hair comes in 2nd.
Great stuff, and such ingenuity!
i was scrolling thru this again and thinking how nice that it is this time of year. ours is always mid summer and it's just so hot. maybe it is a little color this time of year!!
O, funny, funny pictures and creatures. Don't be sad, hopefully, September and October will be still warm. Enjoy!
I'm happy you enjoyed the Putin/Trump scarecrow and got the joke. A lot of people saw the red cap, assumed it was Trump, (sometimes) laughed a little, then moved on. Others took the time to understand it and be entertained. Thanks for the wonderful photos!
