I managed to get him to come visit this week and, as we so often do during July and August each year, we started carving jack-o-lanterns.
While the rest of the world celebrates Independence Day and Fireworks, Labor Day and Summer pool parties...we celebrate Halloween! Why? Well it's tough to sell Jack-o-Lanterns in January so it's better that we have them done for the October show. Several new designs this year, although not as many total "pumpkins" as we've had in previous years. You are all required, having read this blog post, to cross your fingers with us and hope that they all survive the firing...(the kiln is the enemy)
