Today was a great day to clear out all the apples from the first apple tree, since they had pretty much all ripened. Two monkeys climbing plus a long string trimmer from the ground = 85 lbs of apples, most of which got chopped, cored, mashed, and pressed into some fantastic cider, with another 15lbs of nicer ones to eat or do something else with this week.
Then I proceeded to lie down on the couch and do absolutely nothing for the rest of the day, due to feeling awful and sluggish and cold from whatever upper respiratory thing I seem to have at the moment.
Oh well, at least it was a good weekend for it. The other tree's apples are definitely starting to redden, as well.
