Mary Busey doesn't just decorate Halloween pumpkins. She addresses them and mails them to her four grown children around the country.

She's done it for the past 25 years - 99 pumpkins in all, and all but three arrived intact. "They delivered those in plastic bags," Busey said this week.She likes to watch people's reactions as she waits in line at the post office with an armful of pumpkins.

"They just stand there and look at me out of the corner of their eyes," said Busey, who uses no boxes or wrapping.
