I would like to thank all who mailed me seeds, put up with inane questions and my general whining about what to do or how to do something. granted i didnt do too great for a first year, but none the less at least i got em to grow. my estimated weights were 126.4 and something like 111 or 118. i dont have the spread sheet in front of me.
so i do appreciate all the help, i am grateful for the website and all the hard work Ken D. and others put in on it. i am looking forward to next year, maybe i will do better.
i am also thankful for how close knit this community is.

now a few personal thanks
don and geneva emmons.. i appreciate the help you have given, even when i came to you with the issues of getting don's 722 to germinate. you sent extra seeds... thanks alot

mike (a.k.a. walcott pumpkin)... thanks for coming out to meet me and look at the destruction that were my patches at the time. thanks for the pointers... and for lunch too ;) i owe ya one

ben boynton... thanks for the seeds you sent out. i didnt want to grow yours my first year and ruin the chance for a nice cross off your aussie record fruit. hopefully one time soon here i will be able to send ya a good cross.

and for all the others i forgot right off here. it has been a fun nite filled with pain and heavy meds... i got a nasty case of acute achilles' tendonitis. kinda hurting right now. in a couple of weeks here i will be able to send out my seeds for whom ever wants em

No problem Craig! Sounds like your hooked now! Next year I'm sure they will be much bigger!
