Around Town

I've found an interesting variety of photo-worthy things around town recently, and we are headed into the Scarecrow Festival, so there will be more coming.  I need to get downtown and get some photographs for you.  Here are a few things to keep you amused in the meantime.

In the spirit of the Scarecrow Festival, a woman on our street likes to put out a display, so here is a chef making an apple pie.  Meaford is the apple capital of Ontario, after all.

And here is the harvest side of the picture.  Apples are one thing that is still harvested by hand; most of the apple pickers come from Jamaica or Mexico, and have been coming for years.

I love the sight of Brown-eyed Susans, and a friend around a few blocks has a patch.

Downtown the decorative flower planters grown by the town are magnificent.  Someone deserves a lot of credit.

Nearby is this group of very small scarecrows that someone has stuck in near the Trowbridge Street bridge.  You'll see a lot more larger size scarecrows soon.
