Scarecrows



Scarecrow. Lucy Mercer/A Cook and Her Books

In early October, my family visited Orange Beach, on the Alabama Gulf Coast. While riding around this quaint and quiet beach town, we spied a field of scarecrow at the Coastal Arts Center of Orange Beach. We found Waldo, Dorothy, the Tin Man, a pilot, a mermaid and assorted other clever riffs on the scarecrow theme.
