But wait, there's more ...pumpkins!

This one was done by local artist, Glen Chadbourne -


And this beauty was probably my favorite - 


Can you imagine the time it took to carve every leave and flower?!


And this last one, was the winner for the biggest pumpkin, a whopping 1266lbs!


Have a great week and see you Friday with our first First Impression of the month :)

    Ha! I do love the first one for Halloween. And I'm just amazed at what some people can do with a knife and a gourd. Really cool. I wish we had a festival like that here. :)

    Seriously. Do we live in the same state or what? How could I miss this stuff. Love the artwork!

    Great selections! I like that first one too, whimsically evil. I admire the work on pumpkins like the rose, but prefer Halloween themes.

    Seriously impressive. The one with the flowers carved into it is beautiful. Hard to believe that it is a pumpkin.

    Okay, that flower is amazing. I take the prize back and give it to that one. Pumpkin carving has really turned into an art form!

    That pumpkin flower is amazing -- doesn't even look like a pumpkin -- the time that took to carve, WOW!

    Oh wow, I love all these pumpkins- so amazing. Wish we had a pumpkin festival like this. We have a scarecrow fest, which is cool enough but I'd prefer what artists do with pumpkins! That flower one is incredible
    I've really missed visiting your blog! :)
