Fruit on the 537 Kearns. Haven't been turning orange for me, so I've started to open up the tents. We'll see if a little tanning lotion will bring out the color.

John Girgus' #1548.5 at Deerfield N.H. 9/29/16. , Nothing like a little bit pumpkin over-hang, they've got to start making pick-up beds a bit wider.

I was helping with the scales and most of my pictures from Topsfield Fair were a bit of a blurr. Here's the few I was able to salvage. This is the heavy corner I think that's Gary Vincent's son and his 1834.5 that he's thumping

#638 Kearns '16 loaded for Deerfield N.H. something about a pumpkin in the bed always makes a pick-up look a little better.

This #620 Kearns had made it to the Deerfield NH. fair a few weeks back. I tried to make it interactive. You go behind it, kneel on the foam pad, stick your head inside, and "click" you've got a pic of you being eaten by a Giant Pumpkin Monster. Visitors loved it. They're holding up well. Will keep it lit thru the Election.
