Fall is here. This was 1:30 PM in the afternoon. First day we have seen this season with a not-so-slight chill in the air.
That's right folks, giant pumpkins. The fellow in the black tee is Dave Hancock a co-worker of mine. That beautiful gord on the scale was grown in his backyard.
Note the forklift.
The winners at this Weigh-Off were the bohemouths to the left and right of the scale. One of these weighed in at over 1300 lbs. Word on the street is that the world record is currently: Joe Jutras from North Scituate, Rhode Island. He brought a 1689 pound pumpkin to the Topsfield Fair GPC weigh-off in Topsfield, Ma. on September 29, 2007. If history holds true that will be beaten sometime this year.
A classic western showdown: goat style.
Brielle informed me that owning goats is now in our 5 year plan.
