The Great Escape

Last week a squash plant, but maybe it is a pumpkin, escaped.  You can see it climbing out of its fence cage and going into the apple tree. 

Frequently the squash and or pumpkins that are planted under the apple tree go airborne and latch onto a branch in the apple tree. 

Sometimes it works but sometimes the squash or pumpkin is not successful and drops back into its cage. 

This is what it looked like last week.   I had wanted to show you on Sunday but out DSL went out during a heavy storm Saturday night and was not completely restored for 48 hours.  In addition, we had a little trouble with our cable. 

The squash or pumpkin is still clinging to the apple tree.  Right now it looks like there may be a blossom between the top of the cage and the apple tree.
