1,169-Pound Pumpkin Drop

Posted on October 28, 2010 by circa71

Utah’s largest pumpkin for the year, weighing in at 1,169 pounds, was dropped on an old Pontiac after being hefted up by a 175-foot crane:

The pumpkin was grown by Matt McConkie from Mountain Green and it is calculated that the descent of the giant pumpkin reached a top speed of 67.1mph for 3.1 seconds before meeting its end.

Halloweens’ past

2008—A wonderful Indian Summer night to celebrate Halloween08, a kicking fire and 80 or so of my best friends in their over-the-top costumes.

Enjoy the photos—if anyone has any to add please send them to me via circa71@gmail.com I’d love to add them to the slideshow below. Until next year…

Halloween on Gondert 2008

Posted on October 16, 2008 by circa71

Between the gothic stones above the graves and curdling groans. Gargoyles peer from old stone walls, the clock strikes twelve. Midnight falls. Spirits and creatures rise from hell brought back this night by an old church bell. Hideous faces, rattling chains, this is a place where Halloween reigns. Flapping wings of flying bats and the prying eyes of old black cats. The witching hour has come to call reviving the dead, one and all. The November wind sheiks loud and clear while shapes in flowing shrouds appear. So those of you who would bravely dare to meet All Hollow’s evil stare. Know the warning and heed the power be at Gondert by the witching hour.

2008—Halloween is on us once again. Get out your thinking caps and craft supplies and start working on that costume! Every year has been bigger and better than the previous year and this year should be no exception. I’ve met so many new people through the DCS—it will be exciting to see how big a crowd and the different costumes we’ll have on-hand, this year. Hope to see you all then.

Halloween on Gondert: 97-07

Posted on August 1, 2008 by circa71

H07 invite & poster design: Crystal Dennis

Ten wonderful years of Halloween parties on Gondert. These parties started when my friends and I moved into the house on Gondert in 97. We moved in the second week of October so a Halloween party seemed the only logical next step. Over time and years so many wonderful and crazy people have been apart of them. From those who I only see on Halloween to those who come as guests are back every year. The pictures do more justice than anything I can write.
