here is a 1446 female blossum pic. yellow and long shaped.
he is going to pollinate it for sure, and when the next one comes down the line he will pollinate it as well and go with the best one. he too is hoping for a state fair pumpkin, so he is leaning towards going with this one that will be at 9' when the tip stretches out. also he can have one to pollinate about the same time as my 1247 and then the bullshit will really get going when the race is on.
so far he hasn't had much to say lately with the Cubs playing like crap, and the Whitesox leading the bigs in victories. its still very early in both baseball and pumpkin seasons, so if i have learned anything in the past week, i should just shut my trap and let it play out as it may. anyone who knows me well enough would laugh loudly at that thought because they know i am an idiot and can't help myself. but they also know that i would do anything for them in a heartbeat if they ask. i said earlier in the year in my diary that i would try to keep my homer simpson,
DOHS!!!!, to a minimum this year. well that hasn't happened yet, so maybe it would be fitting to name my first pumpkin HOMER. it's sort of fitting since i lived in a township called Homer and played on the Homer Mustangs basketball team. Ron Coomer who played in the bigs and even played with the Cubbies was on my team. So the first keeper on the 1247 will be called Homer when that time comes.
