Riley's Farm

This time was the real deal, and it was a blast. Last year, when we began our annual apple picking tradition, we arrived at the farm too late in the season and had to pretend to pick them out of the bins in front of the old time mercantile. Our sad little attempt at capturing the experience made for a good laugh, but Jonah still had a good time. We made a mental note about the best time to visit, and have had the end of September/beginning of October in mind all year long. This is when the apples are at their peak; so today we walked through the orchards with our boys (swatting at flies every step of the way) and picked our very own apples right off the trees. While we were there we stopped to admire the goats and the horses, and made a quick trip over to Oak Tree Village for a quick look around and some apple butter.
