I’m cheating this week. This one is from the archive a couple years ago.

I had my day off Friday so among other things we loaded up and headed off to Carmichael’s Pumpkin Patch in Bixby, a suburb of Tulsa.
SuperPizzaBoy and Sweetie, hanging with a scarecrow.
The place was crawling with pumpkins and with munchkins.
I love Fall the sun is lower, the shadows are cooler, the colors are wonderful.
SPB’s favorite is the Hay House. The kids go in one end and out the other, over and over and over. He’s a freshman in high school but he made several trips. Talk about hay fever afterward.
There is so much to see and so much to do at a good pumpkin patch. I can’t believe it is mostly free. I mean the pumpkins are not but what a picture taker’s paradise. (Note, I’m not a photographer, you say “yeah, no kidding Yogi”, I’m a picture take. I take pictures, photographers capture images.)
And critters, Carmichael’s has critters.
Don’t you just love goats.
I love taking pictures of others capturing images. Pumpkin patches are happy places. It always seems like everybody is in a good mood and the kids don’t get overexcited. Even the staff seems to have lots of patience.
SPB found his. Sweetie insists on stems for at least one. Why? Because she knows best that is why. Any other questions?
Something about pumpkins, and pictures of pumpkins, is cool!!
Here they are on the front porch. Ready for some smart aleck to smash!
Have you been to a pumpkin patch this year?
