"Mystery Squash" - are you ready for your mystery squash?

Maybe the heat is doing funny things to my brain, but I've been watching a volunteer squash plant grow and develop for a month or so,  now. What will it be? Will it be worth the time and effort? 

The tune that advertised a popular game when I was young (I know!) came to my mind: "Mystery squash, am I ready for my mystery squash?" 

Maybe  I should have ripped it out and thrown it in the compost pile when I first saw it sprout? I'm hoping it's not a dud!  It's growing very fast, and has almost covered my Cherokee Purple Tomato plant. 


Hmm.......... time will tell.

.Maybe it's a pumpkin? Let me know if you have a guess.

Looks like a pumpkin to me, but then I've never grown squash, only 'punkins'. So....what happened with the mystery plant?
