oh, how cozy

It’s the Great Pumpkin, Dad!

Can he put wheels on the pumpkin so he can go somewhere like Cinderella’s ball?

A sleeping pumpkin!

a Jack-O’Lio?

Finally,a good hideout from leaf raking!

There once was a dad with a mischievous boy, whose antics brought readers immeasurable joy. One day, as example, the dad strolled by bored, til he noticed his boy taking naps in a gourd. The rest of us smiled as the tale met our needs, but in the back of our minds, we thought “yuck, what about those slimy seeds.”

My dad used to grow ones that large. My niece made local newspaper by climbing into one.

That’s just silliness Everybody knows that, once gutted, a pumpkin cannot snore! Am I right, Lio? Lio?

Where is that rapscallion?

Why don’t you use it as a boat, Lio, they do in Canada. https://satwcomic.com/hi-quebec

Fresh pumpkins weigh a lot. Lio is BUFF, if he can carry a 200 pound pumpkin like a balloon.

“He put himself in a pumpkin shell,

And there he slept, very well!"
