We drove all over the country roads. One day she shouted for me to stop the car. I thought I'd done something very wrong because usually she just kind of slept. Turns out she saw these hedge apples along the road and wanted to gather them.<BR/><BR/>That evening at dinner, I mentioned that we'd stopped to pick up road apples. I believe my father almost choked on his food. He then explained that hedge apples and road apples were two very different things. :)Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17347383508567826146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5871934552767043300.post-66168669813493234602008-12-04T22:35:00.000-05:002008-12-04T22:35:00.000-05:00I love these!

I thought that was a clever use for Osage Oranges.Marilyn Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115440271615593122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5871934552767043300.post-7386303169847584802008-12-04T13:29:00.000-05:002008-12-04T13:29:00.000-05:00Cool!
