RIP Fat Boy

Fat Boy  -  July 7, 1998  -  September 21, 1998
Succumbed to a subcutaneous rot spot as large a the palm of a hand, but
totally hidden by unblemished skin.

I am debating whether or not to take my other fruit - about 260 pounds -
to Elk Grove, or to just sit in my tent sulking.

Actually my son, age twenty seven, was more upset than I. He was ready
to go to the weighoff with his family to cheer us on. 
Growing this pumpkin gave me a summer of enjoyment as great as the last
time I played broom hockey on ice with the church teen group. I guess
the major problem with the small yard is that there is only room for one
big one.

Thanks for all the advice and help you gave me since this spring. It has
been a great experience.
John
