Could this be the winner?

Good afternoon, Growers!

I'm just back from seeing John Gerdes' entry for this year's Pumpkinmania! Brian Smith, Gino, and Brian Smith, of Crainco crane services were on hand to literally do the heavy lifting. They were so quick, that as I was driving up, the pumpkin was already loaded into John's truck. The president of the Midway City Chamber of Commerce was on hand to be part of history, as were John's neighbors.

The pumpkin looked very good...

Have a great afternoon!
