Pumpkin Picking...

After several failed attempts at getting to a pumpkin field, we finally made it to College Run Farm to pick pumpkins.  Yesterday.  It was a perfect afternoon to take the ferry to Surry--Bradley seemed to enjoy the seagulls and the breeze. 

  

This is where the photos end--Despite the idyllic images I had photographed in my mind on this trip to pumpkin glory, B fell asleep in the car and Frank and I ate pumpkin ice cream in the gravel parking lot about three feet from our sleeping beauty.  I picked out my family of pumpkins from the "already picked" section in the farm barn.  It wasn't quite the afternoon that I had envisioned, but the ice cream was delicious and I didn't have to get my shoes dirty tramping through the fields.
