We survived another pumpkin patch festival. The campground offered hay rides, a bonfire with singing, hot chocolate, cider and treats. Last year Jim got to tend the bonfire and I helped judge the pumpkin carving contest. This year Jim and I were the judges so Jim got to wear the judge costume. Some folks go all out carving pumpkins and decorating their campsites. Everyone had a lot of fun but it was a lot of work for us workampers. The campground was pretty much full except for some open basic tent sites. At least this year the weather was much better. It was in the 60's during the day and mid 40's at night. Last year there were snow flurries in the air.
We've said goodbye to one workamper couple who left to go visit some relations in New York and then they head back to southern Missouri until after Christmas. We may meet up with them when we head that way around the first part of November.
We are pretty much packed up and ready to leave ourselves. We head out Monday morning the 18th. Our first stop will be a little campground in Illinois close to the intersection of Interstate 39 and 80.
