That looks like a huge Butternut, Reid -- nice! Our temps haven't hit 70 in a while, today we didn't even make it to 60 Blinking But, so far no frost -- and it looks like at least the coming week won't see one either, so I won't complain.

I have butternut squash growing on an arch-shaped trellis, along with a bunch of gourd plants -- some of them are pretty large for acorns, I need to pick one to try one of these days soon. And really need to bring in some of the green tomatoes, there are still so many on the plants and they just aren't ripening with the chilly temps and I don't want to wait until they get damaged by the cold !
