Your apple-picking habit takes me back to my childhood when we used to pick apples at Cornell University’s apple orchard. In winter, they’d open the orchard for people wanting to harvest dead apple branches and we’d fill the trunk with logs for the fireplace.

Now that I live in an even more rural town, it seems I should be picking apples rather than buying them already picked. I’m afraid if I pick my own, I’ll end up with an overwhelming amount of apples at once and many will spoil before my family has eaten them or I’ve canned them as applesauce.

Wow, that sounds like a great family activity. The place looks great, and the pictures too. I’m sure you had a blast. I’d like to try that someday. Sadly apples don’t grow in my country. Bananas, maybe…or coconuts.

AWESOME pics!!!!!!!!! And a much more relaxing time than the game. And cheaper. And prettier!

That looks absolutely beautiful!! I’m so jealous, I have yet to find anything like that around here. (As a kid we used to pick apples every fall…)

As for a Red Sox game, you NEED to go! Even if you aren’t a big fan. That was on my “Big List” (Think bucket list, but pre-movie) and my husband took me there three years ago for our anniversary! He hates baseball, but the atmosphere at the game turned him into a Red Sox fan!!

Yum! I wish we had apple orchards around here, but alas the desert has no fall and therefore no apples. Beautiful pictures, I’m glad you had a great time!
