Your mother remembers this

We promised ourselves last year that this year we would go to the catapult (trebuchet) place up-island for our pumpkin needs - no more size-limits for us gosh dangit! From what I hear, and see, it didn't disappoint...

Kristal guaranteed a hootenanny:


Gillian informed me she took a few pics to try to be artistic like Rachel!




The pumpkin patch obviously doubles as a Dude ranch...


On the horse-drawn covered wagon...






Picking a good one...

Very nice pumpkin photos, Gillian. :) And now I'm thinking that no pumpkin picking experience is complete without a catapult. Fantastic!

Oh my, I just looked back at last year's pumpkin experience with those sad little pumpkins (and size restrictions) and cannot believe the contrast! This year's pumpkins are beautiful, the sun is shining, people look delighted (and totally cool at the dude ranch). Mushrooms and pumpkin activities...October is looking better and better for visiting you guys (and not the other way around!).

I dunno know if I wanna blog about our Pumpkin experience cause though it kicked butt in Silicon Valley experiences .. it paled in comparison to horse drawn wagons and pumpkin catapults
