First apple orchard outing of the season

We took our first outing to the Door Creek apple orchard on Sunday afternoon.  Pictures are in the gallery.  This past month has been full of simply perfect weather.  It’s been dry, warm, and sunny.  Perfect for being outside.  I’ll bet farmers would enjoy a bit of rain, but from my perspective, it’s ideal.

Our apple orchard outing was short…we zipped over, picked some Earliblaze (for a pie) some Courtlands (for apple sauce), and then we purchased a pre-picked bag of Honeycrisps.  Andrew wasn’t interested in going down to the pond or heading up the hill to visit the sheep, so we then zipped on back home.  In and out with no fussing:)  Now we’re sipping on delicious apple cider and munching lots of apples.  I bet we’ll need to go back soon!

PS.  Lisa, we’d love to go out to the orchard with you and Bubs sometime.  Maybe next weekend??
