Title: Pumpkins........
Post by: alscalls on October 17, 2009, 09:00:56 PM
Went to a funeral yesterday as my uncle passed after a long fight with cancer........
He was to be buried next to the old home place where he was born in Mason co. WV
We drove around for a time after and admired the changing leaves........

Then we found some pumpkins for sale......7 skids of them in all sitting in a fellas yard....
With a bucket in the yard with a sign that read........"Pumpkins $1 Please leave money in the Bucket"
No wonder we love it here so much........

I bought 7 of them for myself and some who need them more than I and left the money where I was asked.....Kissed my wife and went home........ :wink:
