Sunday stills today The theme is Aww Nuts Sundaystills@wordpress.com This is a Horse Chestnut tree. These happen to be the only nuts we have around.
When they drop to the ground they pop open like a tennis ball and the nut inside is a beautiful burgandy color, and no they are not edible, but they are pretty in a potpori mix.
they look rather prickley, are they sharp(?)

ps You asked about those lots for sale in Christmas Tree Canyon. No, it isn't a campground. The land/lots are for sale to build your home or cabin on. There's no camping there.
Ouch, those look painful.
