Pumpkin Pickin'


I have visited the same pumpkin patch every year, for the last 41 years. I sound like Linus waiting for the Great Pumpkin! Last year, it was destroyed by the fires that swept through our valley and it looked like this was it for the fruit and vegtable stand. The community rallied around the family and made it better than ever! I am so glad that I can continue this tradition with my family every year!

Every year they have a scarecrow contest. this year's

Grand Prize winner was a Guardian Angel of the Pumpkin Patch!

Fun! We go to the Faulkner Farm one in Santa Paula and have a blast. That one looks really good too. Hmmm! I'll have to tell my Sweetie about that one. Thanks Wendy
