I haven't heard anyone mention this lately so....The 16th annual Keene Pumpkin Festival will be back in full force today, Saturday, Oct. 20 and it looks like the weather will be fine to enjoy the occasion.

Tara - What's the talk around town? Do they think they'll "Take the title"
this year?

I remember last year - NH was soooooo disappointed that Boston (I think) got the "title" for the most lit pumpkins.....

I have been wanting to get back to Keene ever since I saw it 3 years ago. I have since moved the NC and they don't have anything remotly like this here! I was trying to describe it to my Fiance and he couldn't visualize so many pumpkins. Keep the photos coming!

We made it to the festival today. The drive there was great with some peaking fall colors on 101 and route 9! Here are two shots from today.
