Tahoe City is looking pretty scary these days with all the scarecrows, ghosts, and goblins hanging around town in preparation for Halloween. Our own scarecrow in a snow bank is decidedly less than frightening, unless you think about all the shoveling that might be happening this winter if El Nino hits! Be sure to cast your vote for your favorite five scarecrows by downloading a ballot from the Tahoe City Downtown Association. You could win a $25 gift certificate just for voting!
