It couldn't wait six more days. SIX MORE DAYS!

We came home from camping yesterday and I checked the 522 at home. Things looked fine, but then I found the blossom end was starting to turn VERY soft. Today, it has spread to about 1/4 of the pumpkin. Give it a thump and it starts to jiggle.

UGH! It couldn't wait 6 more days. It is starting to get too mushy to even pull it out of the garden. I'm disappointed I won't even get a weight on it. It will get chopped up tomorrow and the seeds removed.

UGH! I just can't win with pumpkins from my back yard!
