Another successful trip out to Indiana to the County Line orchard. This year however we made sure to first buy the donuts and then do everything else. Sure enough we didn't have to do an insane line and by 6 pm we were walking out with all our goodies in tow. One major negative this year, mud. It stormed last night so there was lots of mud, and walking around the orchard got pretty messy. However, the weather was perfect, a little breezy, and the best part, no Mosquitos! The kids enjoyed the tractor ride. My sister climbed the trees for her random photo ops. My mom also went into the shrubs and trees to get the best apples, and I mostly held the bag to collect them.
Ps. Sorry my fellow locals, Chicagoans really enjoy your local goodies. I do wish the orchard was in my backyard. I'd love to go out there more often.

"Holy moley, me oh my, you are the apple of my eye. Girl I've never loved one like you." - Ah yes, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. I'll never look at an apple and not sing that tidbit from Home.
She is such a mama's girl. Unlike S, who is all about her daddy.
I spotted this apple in a nest. Surely someone must have placed it there.
