Pumpkins, not Jack-o-Lanterns

I love the little, never-got-ripe pumpkins. All the different shades and visual textures are so much more interesting than plain old orange.
Just for Halloween--- conjoined pumpkins!!! Wouldn't this be fun to carve?

I'm sorry to hear Rick's been back in the hospital. Hope he's back home and resting comfortably soon.
Love the colors and textures in the first one and the way the wheat looks in front of the orange pumpkins. Can you imagine what some people could come up with carving the conjoined ones?
I love your faces photos too. That first leaf one looks like a good Halloween face.

Pat, I'm sorry Rick's back in the hospital, you both must be so tired of all this!

Love that last pumpkin, reminds me os someone's backside ;)

Yes, that's the same little girl from a post about a month ago. I got the idea for the pose from last Sunday's Pacific Magazine.

Hi Pat!
I'm sorry to hear Rick is back in, but glad to hear it is a "minor" experience.
It's a happy moment to open your blog and find all your vivid fall color. And those conoined pumpkins are something like I've never seen before!
Thinking of you...

I am SO sorry to hear Rick's been back in the hospital! Hopefully this "routine maintenance" will soon be a thing of the past.

I ADORE those tiny little green and yellow pumpkins- those are SO CUTE! And the conjoined ones? AWESOME, I would SO buy those just for the "weird" factor!

The double pumpkin is so awesome! I hope Rick is up and about again very soon.

Oh, I am not happy to hear that Rick is back in the hospital at all! I hope you can bring some "Halloween cheer" to his (and your) life, and that he'll be out soon! Thank you so much, Pat, for your kind words and reassurance on my blog. It's very humbling, though, to know, that given the much bigger things you're dealing with, you took out time to reach out to me!
