It was beautiful yesterday so Luke, the wonder dog and I headed to the park for a walk. I am running behind schedule and I am thinking of all the things that need to be done. Muttering under my breath, I start thinking unpleasant thoughts. They are now growing to really unpleasant thoughts when all the sudden something happened. We are going through an area of the park that is a secluded walking trail. Here I am surrounded with the beauty of autumn trees dancing in the gentle wind and tiny leaves are falling to the ground. Bahhhh, go away, I am NOT finished thinking unpleasant thoughts about a certain person and what chaos they have created in everybodys life. Then, IT hit! I heard it and felt it go by. Luke turned around and looked at me.
Nothing like a big ole Hedge apple falling inches from your head to give you a proper attitude adjustment on a beautiful autumn afternoon. ......At least Luke, the Wonder Dog still loves me!

hmmmmm... You don't think it's in retaliation for all the fruit jokes do you? ~Sie
LOL, Karmic warning, maybe? Stop, relax and breathe. Love you.
I hope it isn't as big as it is in that picture. I've never seen one before. (I'm such a Yankee)

Whoa Nellie! Close call!
How big are those suckers?

Glad it missed-guess you just needed a reminder instead of a cracked head, which would have added to your bad attitude. Hang in. Margo
At least you got home before the rain hit. I used to love finding those hedge apples as a kid and throwing them against inanimate objects. Damn. I wish I could throw some now!! lol
Love,

Kinda makes you wonder if there ins't some squirrel with "attitude" running around up in that old tree taking pot shots at innocent strollers-by. Paulette

I'm so glad Judi linked to your journal today. I think I'll be back often.
We call those things osage oranges. I wonder if they have different names around the country?
