there's an apple orchard just down the road from us.
you can pick all the apples you want or you can just stop by to people watch and eat a cider brat and take home a dozen of their cider cinnamon and sugar doughnuts.
apple trees are little and easy to climb
the orchard also has pumpkins
darn you fall. do you really have to leave. we've had such a great time with you.

Oh how fun - I love the mood in your images.
ReplyDeleteYou make me want to be.right.there...especially up in that tree!!! xo
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun, I love fall.
ReplyDeletei've never had a cider brat...but grew up picking apples in upstate new york (harder to find such things in so cal!) thanks for the apple farm visit and memories!
ReplyDelete-xok.
beautiful page! <3
ReplyDeletewe had a small apple orchard where i grew up (in illinois.) the apples were no good, but the trees were lovely to climb... your photos bring those memories back very vividly. oh! and there was a wonderful place that made homemade donuts, too...
ReplyDeleteThe wonders of Autumn, apple trees and pumpkins...I can smell yummy treats coming...Am I right?
ReplyDeleteHow absolutely wonderful! Just wonderful. xo Jenny
ReplyDeletelove all the apples just ready and waiting under the trees. reminds me of farmlife as a child...
ReplyDeleteMy daughter is going apple picking this weekend—somewhere in Oregon. Great photos. Looks like a splendid afternoon.
ReplyDeleteIt would be difficult to stay away from that autumny place.
ReplyDeleteYou captured the true meaning and mood of fall. Love these photos, beth!
ReplyDeleteI just love the apple orchard near your home. I wish I had one close. I went to a neighbors last evening to take pictures of her apples and she had picked them all. Now I must search for more. Love the pumpkins too and been loving zinnias at the upick. So I think I must travel to visit the upick farm soon.
ReplyDeleteyou really do insist on rubbing it in don't you??! (just kidding you know; if I can't be there, at least I can see the pics!)
ReplyDeleteNice picture of you in the apple tree. Are they dwarf apple trees? How many apples did you pick?
ReplyDeleteHey, it's not gone yet!..
ReplyDeleteMy daughter and I went last weekend, and she was a bit annoyed because as always I brought my camera and ended up taking a few pics of families who were there together but obviously struggling to take family shots. So I offered. And daughter rolled her eyes a time or two...
Nice pics - Especially that DA in the tree. :-)
Jelloooww my friend. What a treat to look aournd in your apple garden, well not yours but yours on blog here. Great great colors. Love the one with al the apples on the ground.

I just went apple picking with my grandchildren last week and still haven't posted about it...I am getting lazier and lazier about this blogging! Love your photos!
ReplyDeleteBeth they look great all your pictures. love the little boy with the pumpkin. Today we have some sun which makes this a beautiful fall day, I wish fall would stick around too. have a great weekend.
ReplyDeleteI feel as you do - I just can't get soak in enough of the fall season. I have an orchard behind me and it's just crazy love I feel when I go there.
ReplyDeleteReally lovely post. I just found your blog, and love your pictures. The isea of those donuts is very appealing!!
ReplyDeleteGosh, this sounds so un-American to me, but I've never seen a real apple tree! Your photo makes me realize what I've missed!
ReplyDelete* sigh *
ReplyDeleteabsolutely love that second shot!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a glorious day! I think a trip to pumpkinland is in my future today!
ReplyDeleteOk, I have heard others talk of these illusive cider doughnuts. I have never seen one or tried one... but oh, how I want to!! I'll bet they are so good.
ReplyDeleteHow I love the second photo. It looks like a fairy tale!
