We had a killing frost this morning, bringing an end to a miserable growing season. Jacob has one small pumpkin for the weighoff and it is a good candidate for the ugliest pumpkin award. He has one small watermelon and a few gourds over 6' long. My field pumpkins turned out to be large gourd hybrids. I have already started fall patch preparation and plan to go all out next year: I should have more time and money to spend on the patch and I hope and pray that no more health problems crop up. The weatherman could turn the thermostat down a few degrees next summer too. I'm going to help with the early shift of unloading and weighing pumpkins and I'm looking forward to seeing all my grower friends. Here' wishing everyone safe travel and heavy weights.
