      Oh the wonderful topics they could explore now with experiences they’ve had in the past decade. Songs about riots and medical procedures with a lively beat and sweet, sweet voices that said WHAT?!?! LOL Sounds like an awesome idea to me Duane.

    Thank you for bringing a smile to my face today.
    I'd like to share a pumpkin story. My friends had an annual Pumpkin Carving Party and one year, feeling especially mischievous or maybe intoxicated, I stayed out in their back yard after everyone else finished carving their masterpieces and planted pumpkin seeds throughout their meticulously landscaped beds. That next summer he mentioned that he was fighting pumpkin vines that had mysteriously sprouted everywhere. Maybe he knew I was responsible but he didn't get a confession. 🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃🎃

I mean, who writes a song about a pumpkin they saw by the highway and then has the confidence to share that with the world? But it was beautiful and funny and hopeful and mostly it made me feel something which is what art should do. Thank you for sharing your art and talent with us and for bringing me another smile today. You inspire me. 😊

    As a second comment to this video, and as a Halloween enthusiast, I thought the ending was going to be much more gruesome. Like the pumpkin discovers its forever home turns out to be a torture chamber where it's scalped, disemboweled, and various portals gouged out with a butcher's knife. I should have known that sweet Kate is way too nice to write such a gory horror story. Happy Halloween everyone.🧟‍♂
