Five minutes ago I had no idea what a stumpery was.
But now I must have one.
A stumpery is an intentional arrangement of woody
material like trunks and root wads. A root wad is a length of downed
tree that includes a portion of the trunk and, most importantly, the
root mass or ball. The goal of a stumpery is the
creation of habitat especially for ferns; secondarily comes the sense
of accomplishment from arrangements that display the arresting
architecture of the roots, or any other things that you can find on or
in re-purposed wood.
Haven't watched this in a while.
Good Lord...the music.
Memories of that night are fused with this tune by Jon Glassett.

This guy held up really well throughout the winter. I kept him in the backyard. Though he fell over at some point and his old gourd head got all crumbly. So he has a new (and smaller) head this year.
The pumpkin crop is looking nice and healthy (lower right of the photo).
There's something quite awesome about a box of candles intended for only one purpose...pumpkin souls.
"He showed up shortly after we were in the process of moving in,” Lutz
said. “I waved, he waved, and he went on in the house and went about
blessing it. When he was done, I tried to pay him but he wouldn’t take
money. He said, ‘No, you don’t charge for this, and you don’t charge
friends for this.’ I thought that was a very kind thing to say, and then
he said, ‘You know, I felt something really strange in that one
upstairs bedroom,’ and he described the bedroom. And we said that’s what
we were going to use as a sewing room. We weren’t going to use it as a
bedroom. He said, ‘That’s good, as long as no one sleeps in there,
that’s fine.’ And that’s all he said, and he left.”
