Re: Pumpkins full of water


Rick & Gary,

Yes, after your posting of the theft (Alice) I thought about my last
remaining pumpkin (412lbs.), I donated to our Town Hall, (Mayors Office).
We are not big enough to be a City, 5,700 people.
 
I decided to go back last night and visit her out front! I drilled a hole
in an inconspicuous location, using a large funnel I filled her with
several 100lb bags of cement, no rocks just soupy cement!

I figure if anyone should attempt taking a swipe at her with a foot, (boot
or no boot), it should be fairly easy to locate the individual.

Of course I haven't told the Mayor what I have done and think I will
refrain from doing so!
