Happy Halloween! Mid Michigan Railroad "Pumpkins" 2057 and 2019 lead Michigan Shore's Z627 south towards Holland along US 31, passing the pumpkin patch at Green Acres. Heavy rain and slick rail had caused 2057 to work a bit too hard and pop its crank case over-pressure switch, leaving 2019 to pull the heavy train slowly south alone.

My stepdaughter designed and carved these pumpkins.

"I would rather sit on a pumpkin, all to myself, than to be crowded on a velvet cushion.”
“Nature will bear the closest inspection; she invited us to lay our eye level with her smallest leaf, and take an insect view of its plan."
Henry David Thoreau
For reason that I carved Halloween pumpkins too early this week, I found myself carving replacements this morning,
if you happen to take in the Halloween event,
Happy Halloween!
In The USA its call squash. There are about 4 pumpkins on the plant at the moment. Ever tried pumpkin soup ?
This one is a blast from the past. My daughter and our neighbor were a year and six months respectively in this photo. They were having a grand old time. Wow do they grow up fast.
This was our spot for picking a pumpkin this year - a farm located close to the Provo airport. Along with a pumpkin patch they had a corn maze, a hay fortress, wagon rides, and other activities to celebrate the fall season.

Caleb's preschool class took a field trip to the pumpkin patch today. The other parents thought I was a bit daft for taking pictures of pumpkins and apples instead of the kids....but whatever ;)
*I did get pictures of the kids too...just haven't gone through them yet.
This picture was sent to me by a friend with no ID who made the picture. It’s been around the internet. I used Photoshop to improve the image for Flickr
But what’s really important is not the picture maker but who did the sculpture? This is an amazing work of art. I like how the artist uses minimal carvings on each pumpkin and yet you know exactly what he is trying to say. As an art historian I would rank it with other great sculptures especially those of the modern era. This would make a wonderful addition to any museum. If the artist could be identified I would lovingly place his or her name here.
Every time I look at this I laugh or smile. So that’s the main reason I placed it. Flickr people have a good laugh in these sad economical times.
Finally I found some pumpkins for a shoot that has been planned for some time. This is one of a series for a client Baloolah Bunting who makes fabulous lanterns (www.etsy.com/uk/listing/469014446/boo-halloween-lantern-b...)
It was great fun and I just love the colours Autumn brings along.
