Everyone has their own idea of what the perfect pumpkin looks like. Some like them big and round. Others prefer them small enough to carry. On an autumn day families with children came to a Wisconsin pumpkin patch to make their selections.

Review of Pick the Perfect Pumpkin
Picking the perfect Pumpkin...we have all done it, and many of us would love to be doing it again. This piece certainly took me back to a wonderful place..THE PUMPKIN PATCH. One like I see every year on that cute Little Great Pumpkin cartoon with Charlie Brown and gang. Yes, it is about the experience, and this piece captured it well.
