Re: Its over for Scar


My condolences, I know how much scar meant to you. I have a tradition in
our garden, where hubby and I grow the pumpkins, hubby claims the biggest,
and I claim the prettiest (thus far they have never been the same one) for
my lawn Jack-o-lantern. This week, I made my choice, and this morning we
found a signifigant crack in her ,she's in the process of blowing open. As
much as I say that I don't count my pumpkins till weigh off day, it's still
a disappointment.
