Up, up, up, it's apple picking time!

We took our annual pilgrimage to Bowman's Orchards Saturday afternoon, picking up $13 worth of apples. The Macs were gone already, but we picked Empires and Cortlands. When we first arrived we couldn't find anything on the trees.

Then Lincoln did.

And then mommy found her favorite, the Butt variety.

Greta was a willing photo subject, her brother not so much.

At one point we thought we were in a horror movie. We did not go down this row.

Greta tasted one of the apples and it was a tad tart.

Before dropping $40 in the orchard store (dilly beans! apple cider! dutch apple pie!), we got one decent selfie.
