Ahhhhh...be still my heart! Pumpkins! On our way back from the festival, we passed many pumpkin farms.
And apples. Apples are for sale everywhere right now. And apple fritters, apple dumplings, apple smoothies, apple cider.....what's not to like about Fall?
This farm lined it's driveway with cornstalks.
Mums!
Pick your pumpkin.
Specialty pumpkins too.
Pumpkin porn.
Inside, there was lots for sale too. The line at the back is for fresh doughnuts....pumpkin, apple cider and maple.
As we were driving away, we saw people on horseback going out for a trail ride.
We saw plenty of Amish buggies too.
I love these old barns.
Another perfect Fall day. We sure are lucky to have weather like this this time of year. Often, we get some of our hottest weather just about now.
What is it about pumpkins that they can dress anything up? They are like Christmas trees that way.
Pumpkins always make me smile. There is really nothing else that looks like them.
Someone's local harvest for sale.
I just love coming across these stands which trust you to buy your own. The prices are so good too. If I bought one of these in the city, it would cost me about 5X this price. Have you bought a pumpkin yet?

I had been growing my own pumpkins and they were looking good then the bugs got to them :-(
I guess I'll be buying mine this year!
But I do pass a big field with corn on my way to work. I don't think it's for humans though because those varieties usually ripe too late here.
34F for a short while here this morning, so close to frost and the death of many mosse flies but still so far away :-)
Have a great day!
Christer.
PUMPKIN PIE! PUMPKIN ANYTHING! I say.
Love this time of year.
