Pumpkin Festival

Every year in Keene, NH they threaten to

discontinue the annual pumpkin festival.

But somehow, every year, it keeps coming back for me.

I'm glad. Sure, it clogs the street. Sure, people from all over come to look

at big, orange, oddly shaped veggies.

But it's beautiful. All those people, and all those pumpkins,

well, they are just beautiful.
