My mom is helping Sister Thompson in the ward get ready for an applesauce making class that will be happening Tuesday the 13th. (which is tonight) Well Last Wednesday My mom, Aasha, Hyram, Tyra and Hanna all went over the the Noles (in the Snoqualmie Falls Ward) to go pick apples. It turns out that her nephew was there a few days before, and shook all of that apples out of the tree, and then put them on a wheelbarrow on her porch. She let my mom choose what she wanted, and then the rest she was gonna use for canning, and making Delicious other foods. Well my mom filled this giant box with these red apples, that would make perfect applesauce. She left them in the box out in the carport where we all thought they would stay cold and perfect! Well... We thought wrong...
We woke up on a Saturday morning. It seemed like a perfect day! And my dad thought, "What better way is there to start a day besides one that is started with a cup of homemade apple juice?" So he went out to the car port to collect a few apple to make his juice with; And this is what he found...
The elk not only ate up all of our precious apples... they also left hoof prints like this EVERYWHERE!
Little pieces of apples were left all over the carport... lucky elk!
And i was getting quit excited for that applesauce... darn.
Moral of the story is- Either you need to be more careful to where you leave your applesauce
Or
You need to always be ready to chase away unwanted guests

That's funny! I'm sorry you lost your apples though. I like the new photo in the blog header
That is so sad! It reminds me of when we had fruit trees at one of my old houses and the squirrels would always get to them before we could.
That is hilarious. Pesky elk! Here we just have nasty, freaky, give-you-nightmares earwigs. EEEWWWW! (But they won't eat a whole box of apples overnight!) Guess you guys should move here, huh? (o:
