The weather app lied. It said that the rain was only a drizzle at 4 pm and that's not caused by a drizzle.

We just got hit with a serious round of liquid sunshine 😁

They will definitely be able to access it from all sides. I'm thinking that if I bury it about 4 inches in the ground they will have better access to it.

I'm thinking about using a big tote to put in the run for a composting system. I can drill numerous small holes in it for aeration and since I did watch Mohawk gobble down a mouse I think it might work. If anyone has any ideas or advice I would greatly appreciate it. I have a roll of hardware...

I'm close enough to Redding to use the frost date for them. It's also good to know that they will ripen off the vine

I'm hoping that my pumpkins ripen before it gets too cold. It's already getting cold at night so hopefully they will. I have a large pumpkin out there and it's still completely green.

Beautiful pictures. I would have probably had a heart attack seeing that polar bear

Picked 8 pumpkins today and don't know how many more are either not ready or hidden to the point I can't see them.

If anyone wants some pumpkin seeds and tomato seeds let me know. I'm drying them out right now

Found some more tomatoes today that were buried under the weeds and pumpkin plants. I will post pictures tomorrow

The 2nd grandson and the middle granddaughter

I'm going to the olive garden for dinner tonight to celebrate my 2nd grandsons 18th birthday

I'm not really too good at baking but I intend to cool all of the pumpkins and any sweet squash I get and make some cookies and bread. I might try making a pie for the kids. I meant cook.

The biggest pumpkin that I picked yesterday and forgot to bring it in. The other one was weed whacked off the vine and I found it today trying to do a little more weeding.
