This pig's never going to fly

Norman n pumpkinsA trip to Marini's produce stand today included a short visit with Norman, the resident pot-bellied pig and local celebrity.  He was busy noisily chomping on grass and didn't give me a nod, but I had to give him a short visit and admire the pumpkin display (just out of his reach).

 

 

Continuing down Veale Rd. on my way peletonhome, I stopped at a traffic light and took a minute to peruse the peloton of skeletons at the corner of Silverside Rd.  I didn't get a chance to take a look at the miniature old fashioned horse drawn hearse which could be seen from another viewpoint on this Brandywine Hundred corner property, which thrives on holiday displays. That was a lot of bikes today (they continue out of picture frame).

That is one whopper of a pig, Carolyn.  It tells me its name is "Hamlet."

Norman is quite happy with his name. Happy as a pig in mud maybe?

Many of the visitors to the produce stand make sure to stop by Norman's pen each time they come.
