All I can think of is how many delicious seeds are in those pretty pumpkins. Roasted pumpkin seeds are one of my fave things in the world! Beautiful pics!

Eliza,
The pumpkins look terrific. Where I live there are a lot of pumpkins grown. In fact a pretty good chunk of all the pumpkin pie filling you see in the stores is grown and canned here. Amazing that from early September through the end of October, the canning plant runs day and night seven days a week with huge semi's unloading the crop onto conveyors to be processed.
Thanks for the pictures of your neck of the woods. I think it's neat to see where others are from. Makes us all more like family.

Your woollybear caterpillar looks like you’ll have a mild winter Eliza.
A local TV weatherman has been doing a hokey, but fun, free family festival type day, based on the forecasting attributes of that critter for the past 30 years. It draws over 100,000 people and 30 local high school bands now to a town just west of Cleveland. It has become part of the local culture.

WOOLLYBEAR FESTIVAL AND PARADE
Sunday, October 5th
Vermilion
The wise ol' woollybear descends upon Vermilion for the largest single-day festival in Ohio! Thousands come from far and wide to help Dick Goddard salute the fuzzy caterpillar, whose stripes indicate the severity of the coming winter. Woollybear look-alike contests for kids as well as pets, Woollybear races, and of course, the Grand Parade, are just some of the highlights of this special day. For more information, or to participate in the Parade, call the Vermilion Chamber of Commerce at…..

Your fellows look like they may be ready for some competition. Bring them on up. I’d love to be off to the races with you.

As far as I can tell PF....no woollybear has ever predicted the winter severity or mildness correctly! Least ways...not around here....unless these folks can't really "read" a woollybear! LOL!
Now...in February.....we have Punxatawny Phil (from Punxatawny, Pa.)......an old an wise (lmao) groundhog.....(I call him a woodchuck just to piss him off)......who comes out of hiding on February 2nd and we all gather round to peek at his............................................... .shadow! I was gonna say shadow! Get your mind outta the gutter....geesh! If he has a shadow..........6 more weeks of winter! Oh wait....is it, if he has a shadow spring will come soon? Hmmmm? Oh shit....I forget.....nevermind!

Lilith---I don't know what your taste preferance is,when it comes
to pumpkin seeds.Every Halloween,when I carve,a pumpkin(with
four grandchildren,that's alot)my wife takes the seeds,that were inside&spreads them on a large cookie sheet.She uses,oil or butter,I don't know which,lightly salts them & bakes them in the oven.The resulting snack,is delicious!(Much better then the bought,packaged ones!) Irish
