gene the pumpkin man

autumn is filled with traditions in our family.  with halloween being ledger's favorite holiday, he has some expectations for celebrating it.  chief among those is that we must get pumpkins to carve!  last year we checked out the local pumpkin legend: gene the pumpkin man!  i had been told about him from a friend at work who grew up just south of town.  he asked if we'd ever gone to see gene.  we hadn't.  well, we quickly corrected that mistake!  and this year we made our way back to see him.
gene has a huge pumpkin patch and quite a variety to choose from.  ledge took his time, doing down all the different rows of pumpkins, making sure he found just the right one!  we ended up getting a few of them, as well as a couple extra treats from the gift shop.  now it time to get carving!
