Duncan-In looking at my 1993 records it sunk in how far our hobby has
advanced in 4 years.Thought I would take the time to show you the 1993 top
ten.These figures were published in newsletters and accepted by growers.No
errors have been pointed out to me.

                              1993 Official Pumpkins                      
      
           1. Don Black-----------884-- Winthrop,NY      site------Windsor
           2. Norm Craven---------836-- Stouffville,ONT            Port Elgin
           3. Bob Ruff------------803.1 Garnavillo,IA              Anamosa
           4. Joel Holland--------792-- Puyallup,WA                Nut Tree
           5. Joel Holland--------782-- Puyallup,WA                San Francisco
           6. Ben Hebb------------781-- Bridgewater,NS             Windsor
           7. Len Stellpflug------752.5 Rush,NY                    Collins
           8. Ray Waterman--------742-- Collins,NY                 Collins
           9. Joel Holland--------740-- Puyallup,WA                Half Moon Bay
          10. Bruce Grey----------734.2 Olin,IA                    Anamosa  

In 1997 a 734 pounder was #55,just for comparison.

Seven of the about fruit show in the pedigrees of the top 1997 fruit.  
                                     
What will we see when we look back 4 years from 2001??Make a  note to remind
me and I will look it up for you Duncan.
                                                               Cheers-Al
