As per our annual tradition while living in New York, we went up to Greece to go to our apple orchard. This was Quincy’s second time to this orchard, as you may recall. It proved to be great fun as he wanted to run all around the orchard, picking up the rottenest apples he could find (see front page of site for proof).
We met Ryan, Debbie, Isaac, and Nathan up in Greece for some lunch and then we all went on over to the orchard. We will miss going there, since we’ve done it every year since 1999. I did most of the picking and carrying of the bags so that Dara could chase down the little man. We picked mostly Cortland apples, but also got a small bag of Macs. All told, we picked 37 pounds of apples, but at just forty cents a pound you couldn’t go wrong. A lot of Cortlands were made into applesauce when my parents came up for a visit.
If you didn’t already see them, there are pictures of the apple picking. Besides a few stray raindrops, we had a very fun day up in Greece.
