Well moose buddy looks like so far your the only entry. Guess you won the best pumpkin. Hopefully there are some last minute entries to give you a run for your money.
I found my carving knives last night and plan to carve the pumpkin I grew.

Drove to my aunts for her to see my daughter one last time before she goes to Arizona for the winter. Got home at 7:30 and realised I didn't print a stencil.
So it's late. Maybe tonight but I have my second job to go to.

Disappointing year

Maybe next year others will pertisapate.
It's very nice of Mr Greg to send that along to you.
Thank you Mr Anderson and Greg for offering up such amazing prizes. Sorry my pumpkin carving contest sacked balls.

Not much turn out? How many entered this year? I only saw myself and Moose enter. Seems like you promoted it enough. Seems like the VCF Scavenger Hunt might have taken some contestants away.

Don't think of it like that. You promoted it and you put up a nice incentive. That's all anyone can do. A hat tip for bringing a bit of fun to the forum. :thumb:

I agree, you promoted it well. We just gotta see about finding a different nerve, maybe a different approach?
