DescriptionChildren of Tempeans Loretta and Earl Barrett, both teachers, found that if you can't readily get hold of a pumpkin, a tumbleweed will do just as well in creating a Jack-O-Lantern. The lowly tumbleweed has its moments of Glory. It frequently shows up as basis for mock Christmas trees and as glittered and holiday-trimmed Christmas decorations too.
