Tips welcome!  They're not selling the apples, but, you know, if you <u>really</u> want to give them money, it's ok!

a11-018.jpg
Would you buy apples from these faces?
Apparently many would -- they made eight bucks!

They are huddling up to decide which flavor of sundae they want on top of their funnel cake

Dig in, everyone!
They went with hot fudge.  Good choice.

Sugar rush
After they ate the ice cream, they did a song and dance on the tables.  Luckily for all involved, the video did not turn out
