Posts tagged fall is the best!

I was finally able to go. My brother came home today to visit, so him, James and I went to one of the bigger apple orchards in the area to go apple picking!

I was surprised that it is so late in the season, I guess since it’s been so nice out, and such a beautiful autumn that people have been out picking apples more? I don’t know I don’t have a reason. But, they only had one kind of apple left (good thing it was delicious jonathon) and you had to use those special apple pickers to reach up into the tree.

We managed to hand pick a few, and we found a golden delicious tree! We STUFFED our three itty bitty plastic bags, I think I got like 15 apples in mine…including one the side of a walnut.

Then we walked around taking some pictures… we sort of decided that spending $5 each for one kind of apple that were last pickings, we could go take a tiny pumpkin from the upick patch next to the trees. I took two itty-bitty-adorable-wonderful-I-love-them pumpkins!

Last, we got a gallon of cider and got a donut each. My favorite donuts are from another smaller place, Verellens, but these were pretty good! And, my Dad is happy we brought cider home…

I FORGOT TO BUY A CARAMEL APPLE. Guess I’ll have to go back =]

I love fall!
