I knew by the time I got home from the grocery store it would be too dark for outside pics and my grocery store has such lovely mums and pumpkins out front that I snapped some pics of them for our 31 days of October challenge.
This is an exhibition of pumpkins arranged for sale. The plant is a cultivar of Cucurbita pepo and belongs to the family of the Cucurbitaceae. Garten Kürbis
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.
To encourage people to compost their pumpkins, a city agency invited everyone to bring their pumpkins to a local park for a pumpkin parade. They lit up the pumpkins as the sun was going down.

October always means pumpkins are in season. This group of pumpkins on a shelf was found during a visit to Hee Haw farms. Lots of fun activities to be found on the farm.

Halloween o Noche de Brujas es una fiesta que se celebra principalmente en Estados Unidos en la noche del 31 de octubre. Tiene origen en la festividad celta del Samhain y la festividad cristiana del Día de todos los santos. En gran parte, es una celebración secular aunque algunos consideran que posee un trasfondo religioso. Los inmigrantes irlandeses transmitieron versiones de la tradición a América del Norte durante la Gran hambruna irlandesa de 1840.
La palabra Halloween, es una derivación de la expresión inglesa All Hallows' (Víspera de Todos los Santos). Se celebraba en los países anglosajones, principalmente en Canadá, Estados Unidos, Irlanda y el Reino Unido. La fuerza expansiva de la cultura de EE. UU. ha hecho que Halloween se haya popularizado también en otros países occidentales.
El día se asocia a menudo con los colores naranja y negro y está fuertemente ligado a símbolos como la Jack-o'-lantern. Las actividades típicas de Halloween son el famoso truco o trato y las fiestas de disfraces, además de las hogueras, la visita de casas encantadas, las bromas, la lectura de historias de miedo y el visionado de películas de terror.

This was kind of a sad collection of pumpkins ready for picking at the Cornbelly's Pumpkin Patch in Spanish Fork.
