A Visit to Hollywood...

This weekend we visited the Wray Scarecrow Festival, in the Lune Valley, North Lancashire. It is a fascinating adoption of a traditional event. For a brief history watch this video. The festival has a yearly theme, this years was based on films. One of my favourites was the Birds. Some of the exhibits were very professionally done, including the Wizard of Oz characters below.

There is a great sense of humor underlying the whole event, with so many puns on the village name. Well worth a visit if you're looking for something different on a Bank Holiday Monday!
