Man Paddles Down River In Pumpkin Boat 3

Charity adventurer JR Hildebrandt plans on paddling 150 miles down the Wisconsin river in a 760-pound pumpkin. There is enough room in the giant pumpkin boat for a chair, small propane heater and JR. A board was added to the bottom of the gourd boat to provide some stability. The eight-day trip will raise money for a charity that provides dream trips for special needs kids. "We've sent children to Disney Land, or Disney World. We've sent them to NASCAR races, we've even sent one little girl to Jamaica on a cruise and I wanted to take it a step further," Mr. Hildebrandt said. I know a young lady with a glass slipper fetish who would love to meet this guy.
