Strange Garden

 

Every year, the Desert Botanical Garden does an event called "Strange Garden".  It's meant mostly for families to bring their kids to enjoy instead of trick-or-treating.  All The action happens in the evening so in the morning hours, I just get to enjoy the displays they've set up.  The one above greeted me at the entrance gates.

Even though the pumpkin patch was closed until the evening, I was able to snap a photo from the entrance.  That is a lot of pumpkins!


I thought the scarecrows on either side of the entrance display were quite nice too. Obviously, they haven't scared away any of the crows.
