Ten dollars seems a lot for an apple, but when you multiply it by four and figure that we got four apples for about $41 worth of gasoline, that’s not bad. We spent eight hours driving 228 miles, of which 60 miles were bad road that probably took a toll on the car, so I guess $41 isn’t quite accurate. October 7 is Karla’s birthday. To celebrate we drove to Florence Lake and went to our secret apple tree and picked the apples. To be nice to the birds and bears, we left many more apples on the tree. Oh, yeah, we also opened the store and retrieved some important accounting records that were somehow forgotten when the store was closed for the season.
And I got to have a nice high Sierra venue for presenting Karla with a gorgeous aquamarine and diamond bauble I managed to buy without her knowledge. She loved it.

The way the economy is going we will all be paying $41 for an apple or two before very long.
Happy belated birthday, Karla. Sounds like you had a lovely day :)
If we're lucky you'll use the bauble "for scale" in one of your photos. Then we'd get to to see what it looks like!
Karla says thanks, Susan. As for pete s., I was thinking of showing one of our mountains with its fall foliage and could use the bauble for scale then.
