Okay, this is my last message (today) - I'm just on a roll and hate to
roll up all my questions in one message when they're not really related.

Some of you sent messages to me asking if I tell the kids about the
history of pumpkins and/or jack-0-lanterns.  I tell the kids about how
the indians use to use pumpkins to make bowls.  How the pilgrims made
pumpkin pie right in the pumpkins, etc.  Please share what information
you share as pumpkin and/or jack-0-lantern history/lore.  I'm getting
ready to gear up for field trip season.

There is a web page out there which has the story. I think it is on
Dills page.
