Pumpkin a la mode

This is a trip the U of I Baha'i Association made out to Curtiss Orchard, which is a working farm but it's also kind of like a Braum's for fruit and other produce. It's a big place with lots of acres of farmland, orchards, and, for our purposes, a pumpkin patch. I took it upon myself to photograph the ugliest, most obliterated pumpkins, and I think I did pretty good. The weather was pristine, but the lighting was very harsh. I particularly like the last photo.


Curtis Orchard is known for perfect apple donuts.

There was an airfield just to the south. Pretty cool seeing these flying overhead.
