Local Saturday - A Pumpkin Day

The first day of fall in upstate New York.  If you looked at the thermometer, you may have thought it was August.

But, all around us, fall was showing itself.

Massive pumpkins.

Pumpkin checkers with mini-pumpkins.

Pumpkin and corn games. 

The corn maze, which I did not take advantage of, has a different picture theme each year.  This year's maze theme?  Local animal celebrities April the Giraffe and her son Tajiri.

Like it or not - fall is here.

More fall pictures in the coming weeks.
