The Milford Great Pumpkin Festival is a big hit every year and I love knowing that I am a part of this very New England event.   It is local, intimate, casual and a whole lotta fun, including face panting, food and trinket sales, live music and, never to be out done, the traditional saturday eveing pumpkin lighting.

Take a few moments to look at SOME of what this wonderful weekend has to offer.  And, if you're in the area next year, consider coming out to visit with the wonderful folks of Milford, NH and the whole state of New Hampshire, for that matter.  If you see a plump, bearded man, in a tattered hat, spinning a pumpkin in his lap, that would be me.  Please stop over and say "hi"...
