Sunday Antics

Pete and I decided to search for Devil's Dice and pick some apples this past Sunday.
Devil's Dice are perfectly cubed formations that are found at a local park. They can be as tiny as a grain of sand or several inches in diameter. Here is one description of these interesting minerals: "They used to be cubic pyrite but after a few quadrillion years (give or take a couple of weeks) they have pseudomorphed into limonite." Then we went to Carter Mountain Orchard to pick some apples. Jonagolds to be exact, and then made some great Apple Crisp that challenges my Aunt Becky and my Apple Dumplings of 2 years ago. Yummy!
