Apples to Apples

Fall 2009 182

We had family from Homer, Alaska visit recently and the food they say they miss most from the lower 48 is fresh apples.  Verlyn Klinkenborg of the Times elaborates on heirloom apples.

You just have to learn to look in the right direction at the right moment

This photograph was taken while I was standing in the parking lot of a Wal-Mart in Lunenburg, Massachusetts, where I pulled in with hopes of getting some nice views. Behind me were acres of parking lot lined with tractor trailers and a number of parked RVs – truckers making deliveries and leaf peepers on the move. So, behind me, big box blight, and in front of me, a vison of New England worthy of Raphael’s brush.
