Out of the Ordinary

Here's the collection of pumpkins I picked up yesterday at The Pumpkin Porch... along with a few bargain mums (regular & mini). Loved the variety of out-of-the-ordinary colors of pumpkins for decorating. We'll stop back for the traditional ones next month for carving our jack-o-lanterns. Guess I'm embracing the inevitable fall spirit early despite my love of summer & sadness in the end of beach days. It's always good to have the change, admittedly. And, the all-week of rain forecasts have me feeling gloomy, in need of something colorful & uplifting.
