A Stonehenge pumpkin for Samhain

Vincent (our brother) designed and carved this pumpkin for our meadow celebration on All Hallow's Eve or Samhain. Samhain (pronounded sah-ween) is an ancient Celtic festival marking the beginning of winter. This pumpkin was created in honour of our friend Kaye. Kaye is an artist and a druid.
Vincent is an artist in his own right. He's been a life saver around the homestead the last couple of months especially with David's recovery from his recent back surgery. And he's darn good company too!

Ahh, I missed the post too until the other brother told me about it. Love the art, and even better, the artist.
