A blast from Halloweens past ...

.
Back in the mid-80's my uncle grew MASSIVE pumpkins on the farm not far from Stratford ... one year he gave me one as a birthday present. We had to hollow it out BEFORE we could load it in the back of my car and drive it into town ... then I carved it into the BIGGEST Jack O'Lantern I've ever had:

And just so you can see how BIG it was I've included the picture of a more youthful, hirsuite me kneeling beside it at the front of my mom's house:

HAPPY HALLOWEEN !!!!
