Video - PumpkinTown USA
A reader, Sharran, emailed me to say: "Another fun thing for families and everyone is PumpkinTown in East Hampton, CT. It's clever, fun and makes great pictures. I'm sure your daughter would enjoy it." She was right! On Sunday, October 11, 2009, my six-year-old and I headed to PumpkinTown USA, and we had a phenomenal time photographing the adorable pumpkin people who inhabit this Halloween attraction, as well as enjoying all of the kid-friendly activities included in the small admission fee. Lines move quickly (I've never seen such talented and speedy face painters!); there's food, drink, and shopping on-site; and photo ops abound. In fact, rather than telling you any more... we'd like to show you! Enjoy this PumpkinTown USA video tour.
