Fall Festivals- don't you love them?

Fall and the ultimate festival - Circleville Pumpkin Festival. Whatever you can think of to eat, imagine it made with pumpkin- burgers, pies, candy, waffles, ice cream -- get the picture?


The displays of pumpkins and gourds were beautiful.
This small pumpkin weighed in at 1,150 lbs. And it was not the largest!
That one was over 2,000 lbs- imagine trying to get that loaded on a truck.

No picture - I was not able to get close enough to see it-- as you can tell, it was a gorgeous day in central Ohio and 1/2 of Ohio was in Circleville.

Yes, these heads are reall pumpkins- now how did they do that?



Worlds largest pumpkin pie and for real, the hogs have a real treat when the festival is over.










This artist has painted murals on the old buildings in many of our Ohio towns.



Even the local pets get in the fall festival mood!
