Andrea took this photo of me and at first, I didn’t like it. Then, as I looked better at it, I realized it is such a great example of our pumpkin community coming together and it reminded me of the following. I thank the late Craig Sandvik (islandorange) for giving me his lifting ring when he stopped growing. I thank the late Steve Handy for making me the tripod head/leg holder and I thank Ron Barker for not only introducing me to Steve, but actually picking up the lifting ring and bringing it with him to Vancouver Island from Washington State when he was attending an Island Weighoff. Then a great tip from Eric Gerry (pumpkinpal) who had a great diary entry that showed the water pipe insulation he suggested using on the lifting straps to protect the pumpkin during lifting, thanks Eric.
