The gang from Honesdale made their annual trip to Altoona to get a weight on some pumpkins and to see some old friends and meet some new ones. A good time was had by all and my 992 weighed true to the chart and came in at 730 pounds. With Rocky weighing it at 808 in Cooperstown, although the photo he posted clearly goes against the sign he is holding, as the scale reads 807 behind him.... but whatever,he got me this year. With the early maggot trouble I had and the cool, wet weather I am happy with the 730. Its cross with the 1161 Radonis should have good potential. Here is a picture of our pumpkin load with a nice orange one that weighed heavy at 458 lbs for Andy off of my 218 Sandercock. The middle is Andys squash which came in at 657 pounds and also heavy and in the truck is my 730 and Rocky, no sorry Rocky wasn't there.
