Home security

Last spring Emma brought home a library book about a very paranoid chicken and his equally paranoid mother who, among other things, put up warning signs in their yards to scare away potential burglars.

Emma thought this was an absolutely brilliant idea, so brilliant that she promptly made a sign for us (with just a little bit of help from Daddy).

And just for the sake of comparison, here are some shots from when the sign was crisply fresh:

Beware of 100 Hungry Aeligators!

Oh, the fear!

Obviously, it's working. No burglars here! ;-)

no burglars, but you do get strange men lurking around your house in the middle of the day.
