My pumpkin therapy

Not that this means much here, but I cut up the two giant pumpkins I grew this year today. The bigger of the two which I guess to be about 430 to 450 #'s had an outer thickness that averaged about 12 inches. Couldn't believe how thick it was. This one had about 70 seeds inside. Many of the seeds are promised. I used a handheld saw to cut into the fruit at the stem. When I couldn't pry the stem out I used a shovel to get the first cut free.
