Happy September 1st. The 1980 still has a chance. I never give up. Yesterday it was as looking like the 1980 was done. Yes I thought do too but today I had some ideas. Woody and I were thinking. What if we got a hair dryer and a pipe to blow air directly into the rotten wet area. That's what we did. I got a hair dryer and that pipe you see. We connected the pipe to the hair dryer. This was set up this morning. Before we turned the hair dryer on we cleaned out the rot and gooey stuff the best we could. We then turned the hair dryer on. I just stuck my finger in the split and it felt completly dry. I felt no moisture but my finger only goes in a little not all the way. It could still be wet in there but I don't think it is. It just feels very dry. Anyway I am keeping this hair dryer system on at all times for the next several days. I need to make sure it's completely dry. I am starting to feel like the 1980 has a chance but anything can happen at this point. I am hoping that the rot did not go all the way into the pumpkin. I don't think it did but as of now it feels completly dry. Like I said there still could be moisture in the spots where my finger could not reach. I will update on the 1980 again in a few days
