Sunshine

 Awful nice to see the sun this week; been driving the wheels off my truck delivering pumpkins.  The crop is pretty much sold.  A few left for the market tomorrow 

 Tomorrow is the last regular outdoor market.  I'll have squash; sunshine, kabocha and butternut, also, pumpkins, honey, squash bread and maybe some green tomatoes     Mill City market; 9-1pm 

See you there!

Update

My life is pumpkins now 
Picking every afternoon 
Delivering every morning 
The dry weather has allowed us to stay on schedule, and we've avoided a hard frost so I think we'll continue to have tomatoes and melons for a couple weeks. 
 The butternut and kabocha squash are finally ripe, so we'll harvest them this week and have them for sale starting Saturday at the mill city market
