So, I drove my own car and met Miss Ellie's kindergarten class up at Oak Glen (apple growing region) yesterday. There was NO WAY I was going on the school bus. First, I can't stand all the noise. Second, I wouldn't have lasted all day like they did, although I heard they were screaming for snacks and were hungry for lunch! I left before all that (thank goodness).
I did follow them around for about an hour and went on the tour of the apple packing areas and listened to "Johnny Appleseed" talk about the kinds of apples, but it was outside and the temps were about 85 degrees and Nana had low blood sugar, so I left. I had a bean & cheese burrito in my car from my morning stop at Baker's, so I scarfed it down driving down the mountain. Got home and took a nap for an hour. Life was better after that.
Here are some pics from our day:
Beautiful apples!
Apples going up the conveyor belt to be washed, then dried, then sorted, then packed...
Apples on one of the trees. It is still early in the apple season...
Apples on trees...
I liked these apples in boxes IN THE SHADE!
