Apples, Apples, Everywhere!

Today we went apple picking at Sky Top Apple Orchard in Flat Rock, NC! It's only about an hour north of here and on the top of a mountain, hince the name, "Sky Top"! It was gorgeous up there this time of year - the trees aren't quite changing yet, but it's definitely the beginning of Fall. Anyways, this orchard was great, we never knew there were so many different types of apples. We ended up with a "peck" of Stamen Winesap apples. But of course, they had the normal
golden delicious, gala, fuji, etc, etc, etc as well! They also had hay rides for the kiddos, goats, lambs, geese, and ducks for petting and feeding - and apparently a pumpkin patch (which we never found)! Anyways, the moral of the
story is - North Carolina is beautiful and picking your own apples is quite entertaining, we would highly recommend it :o)

Guess the weekend is almost over, so I am going to go enjoy a few more hours before the work week starts up again! Ciao!
