halloween was always a totally awesome event for my children growing up. we had pumpkins and a pumpkin man every year, concluding with a fantastic Halloweeen party. unfortunately some of my friends lectured me on the evils of celebrating halloween, which i never understood. I always enjoyed halloween as a kid and I did not turn out to be some charles manson character. halloween is about fantasy and this man with these pumpkins GETS IT! This would be worth the drive from Tennessee to witness. Way to go Ric!!!!
