Alas, snow on the last apples that froze and refused to fall when winter blew in. Chris S

Looks good

It looks like you have enough there to make some hard cider to get you through until Spring. When I first showed up at U. Maine Orono in 1962, all the old dorms with pitched roofs had cider jugs tied to strings hanging out their windows. I could tell it was a class place, because back in Old Mystic, CT, we had Clyde's Cider Mill that sold jugs of hard cider by vintage. $1.50 per gallon jug.
I carried on in the tradition by using my new chemical engineering knowledge to make 150 proof rum. In the three years that I taught chemistry at a private academy here after I semi-retired, I taught 70 new practitioners. The revenuers are probably creeping around my woods at night.
Ye Olde Haw.

Don't worry. Be happy.

Never Even Crossed My Mind!

Yeah, they would be good ones but I'm not able to climb up after them, I will settle for some bourbon in a glass to substitute. Chris S

Always a good choice

Especially after walking the dogs at 19 degrees and windy. After two fingers worth, you'll feel like you could climb up and get them, but, What the Hell, Anyway.
