around my town

For those of you who might be sad you missed the biker festival:

Adding to my collection of interesting manhole covers:

P1210377

And introducing the Osage orange, one bizarre fruit (inedible) from this area. First is my 8-year-old's foot next to it, to give you a size reference:

P1210374

Growing in the tree (I'd really hate to be down below when this thing falls off):

P1210375

And how it looks broken open:

It's mostly an Ozarks and area radiating out from here phenomenon. Weird, aren't they?
