The Pumpkin Man 2022

 The Pumpkin Man has finally hauled his goant pumpkins out front for all to see. My followers of a long time will remember that he lives a few blocks away, grows them in his backyard, and has won many awards. Here are this year's offerings.






Here is our granddaughter sitting on one from maybe six or seven years ago.


There's no logical reason to put pumpkin in a cup of coffee.

And the air is full of leaves.

Wow, he grew some HUGE pumpkins this year. One of them looks flat. What a sight that would be, and a delight for all the neighbors. His house looks small and cute. I'm glad he has won lots of awards. A sweet picture of your granddaughter, Ginny.
