More on Acorns

I've been taking kids to the bus stop in the morning for five years now. Our bus stop is on a street lined with oak trees, and one of the games we like to play while waiting for the bus is something akin to pitching pennies - trying to get acorns to stay on the manhole cover in the street.

It doesn't look like we'll be playing that game with acorns this year - I see NO acorns on the oaks lining our streets. None on the ground. None in the trees. No remnants. I don't know if this is due to the lack of rain we had for a good chunk of summer, or something else, but...

Gonna be a tough winter for the squirrels.

Acorns

I keep reading about them in the news, but I'm not seeing many of them outside, and we have a lot of oak trees on our street.

From a tourism survey:

Fifteen percent of respondents have been to a clothing-optional or adults-only resort.
