I left, along with my brother, sister and Mom, at 7:10 the next morning and was one of the first to arrive at Central Market. I was shocked at how interested people were in a relatively small 'giant' pumpkin, during the drive up. Plenty of smiles, many cell phones pointed out of windows and the like. At a red light near UW on the drive back, I even had a guy get out of his car behind us, run up, and take a selfie in front of it. At Dick's Drive-In, more of the same. Back to Central Market; once we arrived, the super-friendly staff quickly unloaded the pumpkin and placed my 827 Gerhardt-prodigy in line. I was excited, but had absolutely no expectations, so it was great to be there, stress free, to enjoy the ride. Excuse the picture by picture rundown...I want to make sure I properly document my first weigh-off.
