My grandfather was a big influence on my growing large fruits and veggies. He always tried growing the longest cucumber and the biggest tomato against my great Aunt Helen (his sister). As a kid, this always peeked my interest, somehow bringing me to this point in my life - growing AG's. Pictured here is the horseshoe he always had on the fence post entering his garden, the only thing I truely wanted when he passed away. He visited my patch in 1998 (he passed away later that year) and was tickled to see how big the leaves on the pumpkin plants could get. I have a pic somewhere of his visit, I will try to dig it up.
