Heck, it's not even too late for squash if you want to try those 
again.  I've had late plantings of squash do better than normal 
ones.  Perhaps the squash borer is mostly gone by then in my area....

In 1994, I did an early planting of spaghetti squash at our country house 
in SE Virginia (on a little island in the Chesapeake, where it's also zone 
8 like Stacey has to deal with).  We took one of the mature ones up to 
Philadelphia to contribute it to a potluck supper situation at my husband's 
aunt's house.  She threw the shell onto her compost heap.

About 6 weeks later, she glanced at the compost heap and there was an 
all-new F2 generation spaghetti squash plant with a mature squash ready to 
harvest!
