The Great Pumpkins Have Arrived

The biggest pumpkin our neighbor has ever had: 1900 pounds!
A farmer in nearby Dundee, MI, tries to grow the biggest pumpkin
in the area (or maybe in the whole state) every year.
Carving a pumpkin with a 15 inch shell is very hard work!
The farmer removes the seeds before delivering the pumpkins -- obviously, he plants them
in the spring to try to raise even bigger pumpkins!

Another great pumpkin from Dundee. Larger but not as heavy.
Happy Halloween!

  4. Blimey that IS big Mae, could make a lot of pumpkin pies with that one!
    P.s. the spammers drive me nuts, they usually appear overnight when I'm asleep so I don't see them until the morning, then I usually have to go back at least five posts to remove them, such a pain in the neck 😉

  5. That's one giant pumpkin! Nice! Predicting rain/snow here and 35° for tomorrow. Hope that doesn't' stop the trick or treaters! We have a scary Zombie screeching cat to set out with the pumpkins and all, but that can't top your neighbors! Happy Halloween!
