What Did You Do This Weekend?

Here’s what you didn’t do this weekend…

… you didn’t attend the Giant Pumpkin Weigh Off and Regatta, which was held in Goffstown, New Hampshire.

The giant pumpkins arrived on Saturday morning, when the Pumpkin Prince and Princess were crowned. They then participated in the regatta on Sunday afternoon, followed by a blues jam at the Village Trestle.

The festival featured all kinds of events for kids, like pony rides, three-legged races, a talent show, pie eating contest, and more. For the adults, there was a 10K race at the same time the Bloody Mary bar was open (I think I could guess which of those most Avocadoans would have attended).

So, that’s what you didn’t do this weekend. Now tell us what you did!
