"Looking for rare apples is really not about finding a particular apple: it’s about looking for an apple...And in some respects it is not even about looking for an apple at all, but instead it is about looking at the apple that is in your yard or down the road and looking at it in a new way. It is about that decision to become more engaged with your environment."
