Apple Picking in the Mountains

We once again loaded up and took to the mountains for a day in the orchard.  We used to make an annual pilgrimage, but health issues kept us homebound the last two years.  I finally feel like we are emerging to our former selves and re-starting our old traditions that fell by the wayside.  The children were in heaven. They climbed trees and ate all the apples they could hold.  We had a picnic together and just enjoyed the beautiful weather and atmosphere.  Now it is time to pull out the apple recipes and make some autumn yummies!

Glad to hear that health has again made its home with your family. Health is so important. The trip sounds a bit like paradise. We've got to do something similar here in the next few weeks. Our fall color is just starting in NY and I have a hankering to take a family outing like you describe!

Ah, I miss the smell of apple orchards... Apples aren't a TX crop, I'm afraid.
