The wind finally took down the plamingo; the metal fencepost it was bolted to got bent to about a 30-degree angle, I straightened it, it bent again, wash-rinse-repeat until under a particularly fierce wind it bent a full 90 degrees and then snapped. (Luckily the plamingo itself was largely unharmed, and the fencepost's replaceable.) Since we couldn't leave it up all winter anyway (the snowplow would surely annihilate it), we took this as a sign that it was time to take it down. But we needed something in the space for Thanksgiving, and I still had some plywood left.
So, plurkey!
