Re: 2 per family?
Mike
You have a problem that has faced us all. Locally here in Spencerville we
have no rule Re families. I guess we just like to see big pumpkins. The only
concern that has crossed my mind has been - Did that junior (for our
Junior's competition) really grow his or her pumpkin? It's hard to see that
three year old doing much pumpkin growing. But we take em as they come -
with no questions on the pumpkin growing family's word.
Bob.
