Dixie destroys a Giant Pumpkin. A couple of weeks ago my brother MattB needed me to baby sit his dogs (Dixie and Koko) for the day. Dixie is a border collie who always seems to find a task. She must have something to do all the time... They spent the day in our shop where we build wind turbines. Our good freind Zubbly grows Giant Pumpkins and he sent some seeds last year. Heather (my Mom) planted those last spring and gave my daughter Maya the largest pumpkin of the lot. It sat around here in the shop for a couple months and then.. when we had Dixie and she seemed kinda bored we decided to let her take out her anxieties on the giant pumpkin. Over the course of about 10 min she totally destroyed an 80 pound pumpkin. In this video we've compressed about 7 of those min. into about 3. Adam Brandon filmed this, check out adambrandon.com. He was up working with us on a DVD were making that shows how we build wind turbines. Too much fun!!!!Anyhow... sometimes otherpower.com spends its time building windmills.. sometimes it spends its time playing with the dogs. Watching dogs is usually better than watching television. One months worth of dog food costs about as much as your average cable connection.
