Apple Picking in Virginia 08

These are the four daughters who are now bringing their little ones to enjoy Apple Picking
as they did when they were toddlers and each year since.

Can't believe so many years have passed...


Again, on another Apple Picking adventure in the mountains of Virginia.


This has been an annual tradition for the past 33 years. (We were out of Virginia nine of those years, moving to Brazil, Maxwell AFB, Alabama, and Key West, Florida for 9 of those years, but we did return to our Virginia home to resume events we love to much.)

About 6 years ago, we found a firepit overlooking the orchard and have gotten there early to claim it each year since.

Our children are parents now and are enjoying seeing there children enjoy what they loved so much.

We roast hotdogs (think this is an apple)...
We look for wood to burn....
We show the world to the newest little one...





We find little creatures in nature...



The boys hang out together...climb trees, gather worms and wood...











The girls gather apples...



What a fabulous day to be together... cook sweet potatoes over the fire and and just hang out while the children enjoy being together in a neat, neat place.

Hope you enjoyed our day too.
