sinking fast



Halloween was followed by nearly a solid week and rain and wind. My intrepid little pumpkins survived, thanks to the shelter of the front porch and the shrubs. And a few blown leaves. Nevertheless, it's clear to me that they are reaching the end of their lives. But I can't bear to say good-bye to them just yet.

I find this pic both sad and scary.

I've known those pumpkins since they were blossoms too. I watched them grow and saw what lovely jack-o-laterns they all became. Sniff*
Time to let them go. You raised them right. And this is one terrific picture--love it.

Nothing encapsulates the end of the season like a rotting pumpkin :/
