Absolutely incredible variety, size, colour, skin of Squashes aka Gourds aka Pumpkins in Autumn aka Fall or harvest time in Canada


Below are photos of gourds grown locally in Canadian farms and displayed  at a fall fair, outside Toronto in a town called Uxbridge


 The above two weigh about 50-100 kg each!



I have never seen such a textured gourd ever!





























 Each of the pumpkins above and below weigh more than me! I weigh about 130 pounds!

 If the stalk is so much bigger and thicker than my palm, imagine the size and weight of the fruit!


 The above gourd was longer than Amitab Bachan!
 Not sure if the above is a root or fruit. Root I think...it's got a hairy/thready  bottom!








 I wonder what is that growth on the light pinkish gourd...like a fruit-skin-disease???

The Brokenwood mysteries : TV show from New Zealand : one of the nicest shows I have watched. (It's on Tubi.com in Canada, a free channel)

 I love the characters. Especially Mike Shepard, the detective inspector. American shows need characters like him.
