Alabama Gourd Show



Find Fred and Elaine

After lunch on Saturday, we jumped into the explorer and headed to Cullman to the Alabama Gourd Show, with a stop at the Dutch Bakery on the way.  Chuck and I had attended the gourd show four years ago and I am still fascinated on how people cut, glue and paint the things they make out of gourds.  I sure wish I could turn all the gourds I grew and are stored in the barn, into some of the things we saw at the show.  We did buy some more gourd seeds so I can try and grow the ones with the long tails.  So far I haven't had a problem with growing gourds.  We'll see what I end up with by next Fall.
