I wish I could make it to one of these. I always check to see if my employer needs to send me to San Jose on a business trip...

I understand that the speaker will be our new California state record holder, Pete Glasier! I'm looking forward to learning what Pete does as he spends an hour per plant each day. Whatever it is, it certainly works. I'd also like to learn the secret of getting a pumpkin to grow bark!

dear tumbling tumble weed

abbypappy says there should be no problem getting you and uncle pete inside a pumpkin that large.
you are not trying hard enough.
id suggest greasing your bodies down and try slipping in again.
failing at that? grow a bigger pumpkin next time lol
once you get to 1,700 lbs all three of us can get in the picture
