More Hedge Apples

After my last post about hedge apples, Jay's Aunt Delpha mentioned using them to keep unwanted visitors (aka mice, etc.) away. Today we went to pick some up for my parents to put in their garage.

Many more had fallen from the tree!

And since I made you look at rotten hedge apples, here's a funnier picture.

Also funny: the number of people who told me not to eat the hedge apples. Hello??? How long have you guys known me? Do you really think it's likely that I would eat something like that? You can rest easy. ; )
