These are photos I took last year of a pumpkin patch in a town east of here. I did get to go by there again this year, but forgot my camera. Yes, the man that lives at this place was growing those pumpkins again. Just as big as this .
He has to use a block and tackle to lift them onto a trailer.
I did not see any melons this year. I have seen that the man truly tends to his gardens. My husband saw a fan blowing across the bigger pumpkins when it was very humid out. I wanted so much to talk with the gardener this year, but never got there. :(
Some autumn color in this yard.
One of my favorite trees in town. So many colors on it at once.
One of the shops in town selling mums and pumpkins .
That was a lots of pumpkins. I never bought any more, other that what I bought at the Horton's store. I do remember my girls carving pumpkins when they were young. LOL
Yesterday, Ted went to cut wood and I cooked and cleaned, as usual. . I made a pot of chili and we will be having that for lunch today. Ted was brave enough to go golfing again. Wore his long pants too. LOL
My dentist appointment went like this...the x-ray showed nothing...although my tooth was so sensitive it hurt to pull the floss between them. Nothing wrong with my gums, nothing on the x-ray. So it looks like I will be getting a 3-d x-ray after election day and then that dentist will do a root canal if needed. I told my dentist that the tooth was even sensitive to cold now. I never chew on that side. I am honestly thinking of having root canals on all of the teeth that had been sensitive. Scary, huh? Well after election a root canal might be a joy. LOL
This month is about over. Wishing all a great day. Be happy. XO
Susie, are you using Sensodyne or some similar product? Hope that everything settles down...sounds as if a nerve is on hyper alert.
ReplyDeleteHow do those gardeners get the pumpkins to grow like that?! Amazing. Must be like caring for an infant with all the TLC.
Vee, I am using that toothpaste. Have for a long time. I think their a nerve in my back molar that causing all this crazy pain. Oh I can only imagine how much work that man puts into those pumpkins. Makes me happy to see them. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteOh dearest Susie..the dentist...yikes! Hope you soon have relief..nothing worse! Looks like a full blown autumn in your town..love it!
ReplyDeleteHi Betsy, It's really fall now...so chilly too. I think that make the leaves more enjoyable . :):) Brings back so many memories of when my children were small. We always loved our autumns. I am hoping the 3-d x-ray will help narrow down my problem. it's so irritating when two professionals can't find the problem. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteLove those giant pumpkins. I think they are a special type. You definitely have my sympathy with your dental problems. XO Laura
ReplyDeleteLaura, I knew there were others out there that would understand my tooth problem. Hopefully by the second week next month...some one will know what's wrong. I think those are special pumpkins..not just grown from the average seeds. :):) Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteLove those giant pumpkins. I think they are a special type. You definitely have my sympathy with your dental problems. XO Laura
ReplyDeleteI have a hyper-sensitive tooth that two dentists have looked at and can find nothing wrong. I was told to use Sensodyne toothpaste and it has been a God send. I can tell the difference if I don't use it for a day or two. Maybe it will help you.
ReplyDeleteLove all the color in your town. It's so pretty!
Kathy, Its' up setting when two professionals can't find out tooth problems...what are we to do. I am hoping the 3-d x-ray will help pin point my problem. It' s looking very pretty with the tree colors now. took an extra week or two ..LOL. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteHi Susie, same story at the dentist for me too and like several commenters above, Sensodyne completely stopped the pain after a few weeks.
ReplyDeleteThose pumpkins make me think of a couple of Hallmark movies about growing big pumpkins! What a wonderful part of our country that you live in! I'm sighing over the gorgeous autumn color you have there.
I do use that toothpaste and have for along time. It's that the pain is more intense than ever....but nothing shows on x-rays. So the 3-d x-ray should help.
DeleteI have enjoyed seeing the color around our town this past week. It seemed to take longer this year. Our weather patterns in the U.S. have changed a lot. Blessings to you Dewena. xoxo, Susie
wow, I remember those pumpjins from last year aren't they amazing,, I wonder what that gardeners secret is,, if he takes the trouble to put fans by them he must be very dedicated!! I hope that tooth calms down soon,, I had a tooth that took six months to calm down but it did,,maybe yours will as well,
ReplyDeleteLaurie, I really wanted to talk to the man that grew those pumpkins. Maybe next year. They are just unbelievable. I am praying for some kind of results by next month on my tooth.
DeleteLaurie, I sent without signing off. so sorry. Bless you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSo very sorry about your tooth sensitivity. I love your pretty fall photos from around town. Those pumpkins are amazing! Hope you have a pleasant afternoon.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mildred. This tooth situation has me about crazy...and any more that just doesn't take much. LOL I hope to get some relief next month. I love seeing those big pumpkins. I would love to try to grow one. But would I have the patience? Blessings to you, hope you are well. xoxo, Susie
DeleteThose are really huge pumpkins!!!♥♥
ReplyDeleteSummer, I was amazed when I saw those pumpkins in person. Just crazy big. I'd love to know what they weigh. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSusie, I've never seen a huge white pumpkin like that! That's wonderful! Those mums are so pretty in front of the shop. I sure hope you don't have to get the root canal. :(
ReplyDeleteHave a blessed day, my dear. I'm meeting my friend from high school for lunch today. :)
~Sheri
Sheri, I do love to drive by that shop and see all the colors of mums. Our trees around here are turning at last. Looking very pretty. Hope your lunch with your friend went well. Grab time for friends whenever you can...it goes so quickly. Blessings to you, love, xoxo, Susie
DeleteWow those are some big pumpkins. Lovely color.
ReplyDeleteTeeth ~ blessing and curse. Love to eat, love to chew, but when one hurts....yikes ~ no fun. Hope they get to the "root" of it. Oh sorry...bad joke.
I have lost several teeth, and now have partials to fill in the gaps. At least they don't hurt!!
Sending love and prayers.
wanda, I wonder if those pumpkins are eatable. Oh my tooth has be a huge pain and troublesome thing. Makes me want to just go to dentures.LOL. I have lost a few teeth thru the years , I have root canals, crowns and even an implant. Big pain when our teeth give out. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSorry to read about your teeth problem,you know after the root canals you will have to cap the teeth or they will break off at your gums? My past experience anyway.
ReplyDeleteI love large pumpkins however I don't decorate for the fall any longer
I have so many crowns ...it's one of those that's making me nuts. I think the root canal on it didn't take right....or whatever. It's been sensitive and now it makes all the teeth in that part of my mouth painful. I use sensodyne. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteSusie, if you have to have a root canal, hope things go well, Susie. I never had a problem having one. And yes, I cannot wait for the election to be over...:)JP
ReplyDeleteJP, I hope you never have to get a root canal. The dentist should be an expert to do it. My own dentist doesn't do them. He sends me out. I just want to know why I am having such pain ...it's more than sensitivity. Maybe by next month it'll be taken care of. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteMagnificent pumpkins....how do people even move those pumpkins, they weigh a ton.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous pots of mums, I simply love this time of the year :)
Thank you for sharing your beauty.
Hugs,
~Jo
Jo, When they move thse big pumpkins they use a block and tackle..a lifting device. I love seeing all the big mums right now. Blessings for a glorious weekend there. xoxo, Susie
DeleteSusie, I'm so sorry you're dealing with your tooth issue. Having had multiple root canals, I don't wish that on anyone. I began using Sensodyne toothpaste when my teeth got sensitive and that helps tremendously. Love your sights in town, our mums are done blooming.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Noreen
Noreen, I am using that tooth paste. This is more than sensitivity ...I will know the 10th. :) Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteWow- those were some huge pumpkins! Kind of funny about the fan in the field. Wonder what happens to those huge pumpkins when the season is over?
ReplyDeleteGlad Ted got out to golf. Hubby went with his brothers the other day, too. It was good for him to go and wasn't too cold. He missed most of the golfing season this year.
Hope you have a great upcoming weekend, Susie. xo Diana
Diana, Good to hear that your Hero went golfing with his brothers. The boys need that. My brothers do not get to go any more. Health issues. Diana, I wanted to asked the pumpkin grower where they took those huge things...but I never got to meet up with him. Hope your weekend goes well also. Love you, xoxo, Susie
DeleteMy kids always chose the hugest pumpkins from the field. Grrrrrr...still, they are wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI'll be there with you and your tooth woes. I have one that is fractures way up high and it has to be pulled and fitted with an implant. A long expensive journey. I have a high tolerance for pain but this is so scary. November 8. I;m counting it down with dread.
Good luck to you. Keep us posted.
Jane
Blondie, I have asked myself many times...when do I say enough..I think at times having dentures could not be this annoying...but my dentist tells me it is worse. Then I say, What does he know...he can't seem to help me thru this. LOL I will pray for you to have great results. I have one implant and it looks real and great....but I just think it's not right...or is this where my pains started.??? I know you will have an awesome dentist in the big city. I do wish you the best. As I age I know that a smile is a beautiful thing...because it's what others notice of older ladies. So believe me Blondie girl I want to at least have a great smile. :):) Blessings for a fabulous weekend. Next week in the 70's here. :):) xoxo, Susie
DeleteEnjoyed your colorful October photos. Yes, November is coming fast! have a great weekend. Susie.
ReplyDeleteKaren, We will have 70's all next week. Hooray on that. I hope you are seeing more beautiful autumn colors there. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
Deletep.s. how's your son doing ?
I remember those BIG pumpkins...amazing! Hope that tooth sensitivity eases for you! No fun!
ReplyDeleteThank you Linda, for the good wishes on my sensitive tooth. I am praying I have answers soon ..well by the middle of next month. LOL. Blessings to you and yours for a fun weekend, xoxo, Susie
DeleteBless your heart! I am so sorry for the dental issues. Nothing much worse than that! Well, I guess there a lot of things that could be worse but you know what I mean!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed seeing your favorite tree! NO color here in Texas and we are back in summer time mode with hot days again. This will be the second October that I have not been able to wear either one of my Halloween sweaters! AND some of my flowers died while we were in the country due to no rain and the heat. Halloween may set a new record high temp this year to boot! Weather!!!
Linda, I think what's sad about my sensitive teeth is...I never chew on them, so what good are they.LOL. I hope I get good results next month. It's in the 70's here now for he next few days and may get to 80 one day. I am loving it for now...cause I know winter will arrive and I dread that. I have a cute sweater with scarecrows on it. I like to wear it during fall. Blessings to you and LD. love you both, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYou are not alone in the world of sensitive teeth. Sometimes mine are so sensitive that I squirt Sensodyne into my teeth and let it sit there. It really helps. On the other hand, if I use it too often, my teeth become use to it so I listen to my teeth. Hee Hee! Hope you can get some answers.
ReplyDeleteI am praying I get some good results next moth after that 3-d x-ray is done. I hate that I can not chew on these teeth and the dentist tells me they are fine...doesn't make sense. I hope you can get relief too. I'll post of I find out anything. Blessings to you, xoxo, Susie
