Following strong displays each of the last six years, the “circle of life” finally brought Bryce and Becki Arnold around to Simba of “Lion King” fame, joined by his “no worries” pals, Timon the meerkat and Pumbaa the warthog. It's become a Halloween tradition in Fillmore for the Arnolds to turn their property at 3775 E. CR 50 North (Right-of-Way Road) in Marion Township into a showcase of hay bales and ingenuity. The tradition began in 2013 with The Minions from “Despicable Me,” which were followed by Mike and Sulley of “Monsters Inc.,” SpongeBob SquarePants and pal Patrick and Peanuts characters in honor of the comic strip’s 50th anniversary in 2016. Lilo and Stitch from the cartoon of the same name appeared in 2017 and Mr. and Mrs. Potato Head and Spud last year.
