In Gourd We Trust

Da Do Ron Ron


You want big pumpkins for Halloween? You'd better have a yarn with Rhode Island farmer Ron Wallace. According to The International Herald Tribune, he may have set the record for the world's largest pumpkin. His entry weghed in at 676 kilograms, or 1500 pounds, at the annual southern New England championship. His stellar achievement comes despite heavy rainfall that stunted pumpkin growth in the region. Ron says it is all due to ``a lot'' of hard work from April to October.
