Oh my gourdness! 319 pounds of Halloween art

Link: Peninsula Clarion Monster pumpkins don't frighten sculptor Joy Falls, an instructor at Kenai Peninsula College. She "jumped at the chance" to carve a 319-pounder donated by J.D. Megchelsen, the Nikiski grower whose giant gourds wow Alaska State Fair visitors each year. Falls even visited the pumpkin while it was still growing in Megchelsen's patch so she could start imagining the face she would carve. You can see the pumpkin from 10:45 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday at the Kenai Visitors and Cultural Center, or click the Clarion link above for a couple of photos.
