Apples

We are lucky enough to live near an area filled with apple farms. It can get a little crazy in the fall on the weekends with lots of tourists coming for a visit. I can't blame them for flocking to the place, it's a beautiful place, very picturesque.
Since we only live ten minutes away, we go year round and avoid the farms on the weekends during the busy season. Being so close means we can go for a few hours after school. Then we can wander the orchards and farms taking pictures without hordes of people inadvertently wandering into your shot. And of course, try the samples of apples and cider without having to wait in line!

 "He found him in a desert land And in the wasteland, a howling wilderness;
He encircled him, He instructed him, He kept him as the apple of His eye."
Deuteronomy 32:10

I like that apple crate pic. Sounds like you guys live near apple heaven :) Do they make special ciders at holidays? I bet that would just smell incredible.
