Today Is The Day

Today is the day that I am going to clean up apples from the ground and try to get most of the apples off of the tree. I can't believe how many apples our tree produced this year. I think I can get at least a grocery sack full of good ones to give away and make pies. Someone suggested that I put down a tarp under the tree to make it easier to clean up. I need to rake up the damaged apples and get them into trash cans so I can get them to the local compost site. It is not a job I am looking forward to doing, but it has to get done.
