Apple Picking

(Late post) A few weeks ago we went to the Fieldstone apple orchard. Chris and Ava and I went as well as Kevin, Gaia and family and my mom. We had a good time. The best part for me is driving around in golf carts around the orchard instead of having to walk and drag your bucket-o-apples. Most of the apples were small but we found a nice patch of my favorite, Jonagold, which were large, beautiful and perfect for eating right away. The rest of my apples were either made into pies or are still in my fridge slowly being eaten. My mom is already ready to go back again to get more! I don't know what I'd do with more apples.

Ava also had a good time at the orchard. She quickly figured out what we were doing, hopped out of the cart and starting picking up apples - from the ground. There were a few close calls where a mooshy, wormy apple almost touched her lips. YUCK! She must have seen us all tasting the apples, a task recommended by the owners.
