for the love of pumpkins

It's that time of year again...

time to be in love with all things

pumpkin.

Bubba and I went out this afternoon

to choose the pumpkins that will grace our porches

for the season of Fall,

Even though it is still hot as Hades,

even though the sun is a fiery torch in the sky,

I believe that one day soon,

it will cool off.

I love these striped gourds....

very unusual.

These are the diseased pumpkins,

off in a place by themselves.

Sadly,

these guys are covered with warts.

We got some Mums too.

will have to start fighting the deer again. :(

After the hunt,

we ate fried shrimp at Pappa's.

No better anywhere.

Happy Fall!!
