This is how we bait for deer

149,000 pounds of apples!

Gary my deer like better after you hit them with a brush hog... easier to eat

 

Well, uh, there's gotta' be an easier way.

 

damm, look at all those flipped tires on that truck. Some serious apple weight going on!

 

Yikes!

Ground was too soft I suppose? Or maybe a deer ran out in front of him?

 

It sure is a shame to loose all those apples, semi should buff right out with a little compound.....might need a front end alignment too.

 

Hope no one was hurt bad. It is going to cost someone a lot of money.

 

Yes I agree Larry, it is a shame and will be costly to the orchard owner and the semi owner if they are not one in the same.

 

Those were on the way to be processed for applesauce. Hopefully they could salvage them.

 

" a apple a day keeps the tow truck away"...............................

 

I'm just glad apple prices aren't as volatile as gas prices. A catastrophe like this would cause gas to go up $0.40 for a week.

 

Right! Or maybe they were the "winter blend" of apples which are worth more!!!

 

I don't know that they can do much of anything with them. Any apples that hit the ground can't be harvested/sold. Kind of a waste, but that's the way it is.

The storage facility where the apples came from is about 3 miles from my house. Can't be good for the farmer.
