Big crowd here today lots of family picnics
Kite eating tree strikes again.
Heading north on 7 ran into another Connecticut painted rock, this i think is turtle rock.

Farther north on 7 had to stop and grab pics of this guy. Talked to guy who made it said originally they had entered it in a scarecrow contest. They won for scariest. Sickle was a new addition to make it the perfect lawn ornament. Oil lamp in head makes it a house not on the egg list.

Before setting these pics on blog, this guy became new wallpaper.
