And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

What kind of apples are those? Red Delicious? Rome Beauties?
Who knows. There are so many different kinds it's hard to tell. And they all seem to taste the same anymore. Like the watermelons & tomatoes they pick them for shipping before the flavor has formed.
This makes me sad, my local seasonal farm stand closed this summer. The guy running it was getting to old to drive around and hoist the heavy boxes into the truck anymore. And he can't find anyone younger that wants the job.
They look like Romes. Good cooking apples. When I make pies, I use Rome or Stayman apples. They stay nice and firm and don't turn to mush. Using Red Delicious in a pie should at least be a misdemeanor.

Might be "Cortland", but since they're boxed for transport, I'm guessing "Baldwin".

I have an orchard on my property that was run by the previous owner. I have red apples and green apples. That is all I know about them.
