Raining apples

It’s time to turn some of these apples into pies, cakes, and apple butter for the Apple Fest. Yesterday there were 10 of us sprucing up the orchard a bit. Gardner climbed up into a red delicious tree, then a golden delicious tree and shook the branches until it
was raining apples. We scrambled to collect the fruit as it pelted the ground. Later we stuck our feet in the creek and splashed around with the kids. Now the real work begins!
