Traveling through the town of Buchanan in the southwest part of the Mitten, I saw several scarecrows all around town. It was later I found out that they are sponsored by local businesses to raise money for a charity. What a brilliant idea. I thought they brightened up the community and also raised money to support it. If you are in the area during the fall be sure to visit the town of Buchanan and check out some of the straw-filled citizens.
