The Half Moon Bay Annual Pumpkin Festival kicks off  every year with the pumpkin weigh off. California farmers didn't have great luck this year because of the drought.  Instead, Steve Daletas, of  Pleasant Hill, Oregon, wins the Half Moon Bay giant pumpkin weigh-off with 1,969-pounder.  Steve wins about $11,800 but, it failed to break the record and get the grand priize of $30,000.  


Thanks to Aaron Kinney - Reporter for the San Mateo County ...

A PERFECT LABOR DAY WEEKEND
AT PILLAR POINT RV PARK

August went out with a bang last night at Pillar Point RV Park.   It was a stunning beach day and ended with a particularly stunning night.   The air was calm and warm and a half moon shone brightly in the sky casting a spectacular glow on the still bay.  How appropriate!
