Apple Picking 2010

After a brief one year hiatus we resumed our annual apple picking festitives in full force. We picked a perfect, beautiful, sunny, fall day for the event and were joined by 4 of our best friends, John & Amy, and Michelle & Chris. We literally all crammed into the back of Mike's car and were off for our journey. Of course it wasn't exactly the most comfortable ride all six of us riding in Mike's Acura, but we made it work and was more of adventure, there was some lost feeling in some limbs and such but we survived.

We pulled up to our favorite farm stand, Wright's Apple Farm, which is located just outside New Paltz. We've been going to this very same farmstand for the past 6 years now and look forward to it every year, it hasn't let us down yet. When you pull up to the farm, there is a big farm market down on the street with all kinds of delicious goodies, and then you head behind it up to the orchards where it seems to go on forever.

We had a beautiful day to pick all kinds of apples. Amy looked to picked the perfect apple every time, she wouldn't settle for any apples that were less than perfect. Every time she picked one she made the announcement she found the perfect apple. Michelle on the other hand had high hopes of reaching all the best apples on top and strategized with Chris on how to get them down. Mike and I just soaked up the beautiful fall day with our favorite people and favorite fall activity!
