Post by Jim O'Bryan »

Each year merchants along Madison Avenue sponsor or set up scarecrows for the Halloween season. Here they are this year.

Jim, I love your photo's, there are so many more photographs that could be taken, what a wonderful holiday event, thanks to Bob White's vision and all the support he received. Just look at how you have contributed to the cause, your great photographs, all along Madison Avenue. I'm going to dress up on Halloween, and stand or sit out front and pass out Tricks & Treats, why doesn't every merchant participate? COME HOME Halloween On Madison

I think it will be difficult to top this one. The attention to detail is amazing. Love the poop bag and cone of shame. Very nice touches.

...and it looks like the poop bag wasn't quite big enough. Bravo, and funny.
