Buellton Blue Birds Gather Pumpkins: Joining in for the gathering of Halloween pumpkins last Wednesday afternoon at the Bill Stevens fruit-vegetable stand on Baseline Avenue were Lori Evans, left, Kerry Soliz, Dominica Ortega, Kathy Anderson, Kathy Murphy, Georgena Shaw, Linda White and Laura Martinez. 

The pumpkin patch was raided last week in preparation for the big event of next week, Halloween. Wearing costumes that looked suspiciously like Blue Birds, a group of youngsters enjoyed an afternoon in the pumpkin patch choosing the very best biggest, fattest, tippiest for their very own.
