Conkers


We went out conkering today, it kind of brings out the kid in you, but when you look at them closely, aren't they gorgeous?

Okay, Bah-zer. I enlarged the photo and here's what I come up with: That is a Chestnut.

Like mahogany! How difficult is it to bring out the kid in you? Not too, I'm thinking!

Great to have you back Cindra and even better in stereo.
Gawpo, you are correct, to be exact it is from the Horse Chestnut tree, and therefore a Horse Chestnut, I guess.

I am SO PISSED!!! I was going to say horse chestnut. That's what we had up on the hill at Mt. Angel Abbey. I love their smoothness and beauty. But when they dry up, they ain't so cute.
