Congratulations everyone! Again, such beautiful cabs. A fine tribute to your friend.

What happens to the cabs now? Return to sender (dah dun dah dun dah dun)? Put in display? Auction?

They're supposed to all be auctioned off. Not sure when that will start.

I wanted to say what a beautiful heart you made taylor.

I just knew there was another heart out there !

Interesting that all 3 of us making hearts pulled off the mohs' double sided version.

A beautiful tribute.

Late congratulations to jasoninsd and liveoak ! Well done!

And my thanks to@Tommy for creating and managing this contest. It forced me to cut a cab design that was way outside my usual comfort zone.

I would have commented earlier, but I was in Wisconsin for a funeral as well as prepping for pumpkins.

I'm sorry to hear about the funeral, but I'm super excited to see your pumpkins this year. My husband is looking forward to them, too.

Your cab was really unique and deserved a win.

3rd place ain't bad considering the competition. Congrats!

Thanks Gary,

I will readily admit...as others have stated...I really thought your cab was going to take the win. I was beyond impressed with what you did with that cab! Super creative...and outside of the box thinking on that one!

I will also echo what Tela said about your pumpkins! I actually started thinking of you about 3 weeks ago...wondering if we'd get to see some carvings this year!
