Re: Ohio Valley Growers

Marv sorry I didn't get to talk to you more at the tour,so many people to
talk to.IT was a good time.I wish my patch looked a little better,with 5
inches of rain and 80+mph winds I did my best.Every one I met was
exceptionally nice and open on how they grow pumpkins.All the west coast
people,I would like to make a trip out there and check out there stuff
sometime.One last thing if all the pumpkins hold together that Iheard about
Ohio and P.A.'s state records are gonna be gone.Later Jerry
