the
  783 Daletas x 898 Knauss, 898 Knauss x 695 Handy, 695 Hester x 898 Knauss
or
  How about the 582 Hester crossed with the 898 Knauss?

  Many of you know I created a giant tomato variety some years ago called
  the "Thunder Creek" a few of you have even gotten seeds and grew some.

  Only a very select few up until this point know I have created yet
  another "Giant Tomato Variety" those being the ones helping with a grow
  out next year with the seeds from the new cross.

  I would like to offer the rest of my pumpkin growing friends the
  opportunity to name the new variety.

  I will not say what the name of the parents are, as there is not yet a
  pvp applied to the variety but I will say though one is the same parent
  as the "Big Zac" (thanks to Minnie) and the other is a parent of the
  "Thunder Creek".

  Please send all your name suggestions to me and after the first of
  January I will post them and let the masses pick the name. I am even
  thinking on putting up a nice prize for the one who picks the winning
  name.

  Thanks
  TTYL

  One Typo had been pointed out to me.
  The progeny of the 797.5 Wyckoff is 1089.5 and not 1279.5.
  Also I would like to anounce that we will be adding 2 lots.
  Lot 24 780 Eaton
  Lot 25 1385 Daletas and 1458 Whittier
  Is starts at 8:00 and will go till all the lots are
  auctioned off.
  If you can not make the Auction and you want to Bid
  e-mail me with the Lot you want to bid one and you maximum
  Bid and we will Bid for you. We will only increase you bid
  By $5 over what has been bid and not run up you bid to the
  max.
  If you have any questions or want to send in a max on the
  lot e-mail me at Pumpkinhead335@wideopenwest.com

  How about

  Jupiter (largest planet in the solar system)
  or Eye of Jupiter

  or Pistol Star Tomato (named after the largest and brightest known star)

  Many of you know I created a giant tomato variety some years ago called the

  Only a very select few up until this point know I have created yet another
"Giant Tomato Variety" those being the ones helping with a grow out next year
with the seeds from the new cross.

  I would like to offer the rest of my pumpkin growing friends the opportunity
to name the new variety.

  I will not say what the name of the parents are, as there is not yet a pvp
applied to the variety but I will say though one is the same parent as the
"Big Zac" (thanks to Minnie) and the other is a parent of the "Thunder
Creek".

  Please send all your name suggestions to me and after the first of January I
will post them and let the masses pick the name. I am even thinking on putting
up a nice prize for the one who picks the winning name.

  Thanks
