            | Walking Man | formerly RGG | Joseph Young seems to have made another great decision and that is to take Fiona to Hamilton provided she will last. Go here for confirmation: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1113211778828314&set=gm.2051745848191972&type=3&theater&ifg=1For any of you growers not familiar with Operation Pumpkin in Hamilton, Ohio, here is the link to their web-site :

 OCTOBER 12-14, 2018 and I think (someone please correct me if I am wrong) the pumpkin weigh-off is the first day and the melon weigh-off takes place the second day. I have been there one time to watch Chris get his world record melon weighed and had a awesome time. A great time for attendees this year is almost guaranteed too. Be there or be square ! LOL Best contest in the country with lots of things to see and do. If you have children to bring they will love it, IMHO. I am sad to be on the other side of the world and unable to attend, but someone is trying to arrange a live video feed of the weigh-off for those unable to attend. Go and meet Joseph and Fiona and take a few pictures or some video. New world records are just so much more awesome to see in person!

            | Walking Man | formerly RGG | Frank, I don't believe you have posted any pictures of Felicia. That could be most interesting. Maybe something for Joseph to dwell on. lol | 9/1/2018 10:56:19 PM | 
		
            | Princeton Joe | Princeton Kentucky | Like any contest this thing could go in any direction for any of one of us...and yet Mrs. Puff leans back with a smile on her face. She like the name of Felicia | 9/2/2018 4:28:53 AM | 
		
            | TruckTech1471 | South Bloomfield, Ohio | You are correct Dreamer. We'll post details after our committee gets together to hash them out. We also appreciate the kind words. | 9/2/2018 8:36:48 AM |
