Yard Art, Oh No
Grandkids make us do the craziest things, I'm betting she rolls her eyes
just right and Granddad will make them all. Only say this 'cause I've been
there lol.

Well, looks like it's my turn in the barrel. The older son asked
me to make some figures for his yard for halloween; Grim Reaper, witch,
ghost, couple of pumpkins. The dau-in-law and grand-dau are very much
for it too, so looks like I'm stuck.
I did a google image search on halloween yard art, and came up with
a myriad of pictures. Printed a batch out, and took them over
yesterday, for them to choose what they wanted. Last I counted they'd
picked out 9 (nine), and counting. I told 'em I ain't making 9d. The
kid is supposed to be picking up some OSB or plywood, probably scraps.
As soon as I get the wood, and choices, I'll start. Should be able to
sketch them out, cut 'em out, and paint. No biggie. Except it's YARD
ART. Urk. I've got a NOS pantograph I could use to scale up the
pictures, but I'd really hate to sully it so. So, it'll be freehand,
and if push comes to shove, could craw a grid on the picture, then a
larger grid on the wood, and scale up that way. That's a handy way to
do it if you don't have faith in your drawing skills.
Yard art. How could I have sunk so low? What Gods did I **** off?
Alas, alack, woe is me.
