MOUNT CLEMENS, Mich. – An attorney in Mount Clemens hung up his tie to pack his porch and yard with a mountain of pumpkins.
Attorney James Galen put out over 150 pumpkins for trick-or-treaters in Macomb County on Thursday (Oct. 31).
“So, the way this whole thing started was we drove out to 34 Mile Road and Romeo Plank to Miller Farms.
“They got a lot of pumpkins in the field, and I know the farmer out there, Mr. Jeff Miller, and we collected 160 pumpkins, and we put them all on the porch. Yesterday, we spent a good part of the afternoon cutting the tops off, gutting them, and, of course, carving them.
“By 5 o’clock tonight, everyone was gutted, and every one of them was carved with a candle in it, and I couldn’t have done it without my crew here.”

To everyone’s disbelief, Galen explained why he took the time to carve the pumpkins.
“I’m 62, I am tired and overweight, but I tell you what, I love the kids,” Galen said.
For a happy Halloween, go to Scott Boulevard and Gratiot Avenue in Mount Clemens for candy, scary music, and the “Pumpkin Man.”
