MN.... Date: Mon, 15 Sep 2003 23:40:53 EDT Howdy! I was able to update
the web page with pictures....if interested, look at the 359
Bhaskaran...has turned into a GREAT looking pumpkin! Looks like a Field
Pumpkin only MUCH bigger!! :-) The picture does not show the "real"
orange color it is. So bear that in mind.
