pumpkin patch update
















Haven't updated the pumpkin patch chronicles in a while. The six or seven pumpkins are progressing nicely, as far as almost orange pumpkins go. They were orange on the seed package, really. I keep asking the boys thinking my color deficient eyes are playing tricks on me, as usual. Sam & Jake only confirm what I suspect - the pumpkins are green. Mon says they look like watermelons. Perhaps they will change. We did get a packet of 'white' ones, which really means 'striped' ones in Swedish. Not really. A couple are kid soccer ball size and a couple are smaller but we could harvest them today if we wanted.

Mon and Sam picked pears.

Beautiful pears...and they don't stain the hands. I think Sam is a budding gardener. Your pumpkins are neat!
