Great Pumpkin Project Drop No. 1: Closed For Business


Last night, I finally joined in on this year's Great Pumpkin Project fun with my first jack-o-lantern drop of the season.

I picked up a nice little pumpkin from the corner store and brought him home. I gave him an appropriately spooky face, and after a quick carve and a GPP tag attachment, he was ready to go...


After a quick discussion with Brother Scrapes on possible drop locations, I settled on one and headed out...

About a month ago, the local Melt Bar & Grilled, a fantastic little food joint that serves up the most delicious and outrageous sandwich concoctions based on a standard grilled cheese theme, closed its doors for business. While I will miss their Chicken & Waffles Grilled Cheese, I felt it appropriate to honor them with a pumpkin drop.

I was surprised that (most of) the sign and some of the other exterior lights were still on, even with no one home. But it made for a cool backdrop!



This location was in a VERY busy and well-lit retail space in a VERY high traffic area, so I had to get in and get out quickly. I casually pulled into the parking lot, secured a nice location under the sign for all to see and enjoy, snapped a few pics, and then casually headed out. Right in front of a cop. Oops. Luckily he didn't pay any attention to me and I was able to sneak away undetected.

A little tip of the pumpkin hat to you, Melt! Your grilled cheeses were delicious!!

Super place for a pumpkin drop. To bad your restaurant closed. I am getting ready to do this with a friend at the end of the month. Where did you score the pumpkin project tag?
