Hurray for Peter Pumpkinhead!

I constructed this happy guy yesterday at the foot of our driveway, in an inspired fit of harvest-time effigy building. There was something vaguely "Children of the Corn" about the whole experience, but it was a lot of fun. Who knows how long his hollow ol' punkin head is going to last?

I had to rearrange his limbs a couple of times, 'cause it seemed no matter what I did he looked positively crucifixional, but then again, it wouldn't be the first time.

Oh, and we had our first snow yesterday! It melted as soon as it hit the ground, but it came down pretty heavy for several minutes at the foot of the mountain. And the sun was shining the whole time, so it looked beautiful!
