The highs for the rest of this week are in the 70’s with the low’s in the middle 50’s. But will be back in the 80’s next week.

The "watermelon" pumpkin is by far the most prolific with over a dozen pumpkins going.

Boy was I wrong. Walked around the "watermelon" pumpkin and counted 22 pumpkins.

It's the pumpkin that came up in the pot that I thought I had only put watermelon seeds hence "watermelon" pumpkin for reference as to which pumpkin it is.

As small as the seeds were, I am guessing they were seeds saved from a Cinnamon Girl pumpkin.

Good looking pumpkins there. I would call that one bumpy. I really like the texture of that one.
