Pumpkin time again

On a lovely Autumn day not so long ago, we visited a farm near the farm of our dear friends, the Leos. There were so many pumpkins...

 

As far as the eye can see there were pumpkins.

 

There were monotone pumpkins

 

Show off

Some invited their more colorful friends for variety.

And these were just really flamboyant ! 

 There were large ones and small ones, traditional orange ones and some non-traditional ones,
 but in the end...

 

Polly and Big Red the Dog, picked the perfect ones to take home.

 And so we left the rest for others to discover and take home

Pumpkin time

As far as the eye can see

Not too far from where I live is a wonderful farm that welcomes visitors to pick the perfect pumpkin. That is harder than it sounds when you see the abundance of perfect pumpkins!

An Apple a Day...

We drove out west of here (about 3 miles) to our favorite apple stand. The area around here is famous for Autumn apples. We like to buy a small (½ peck) bag every few weeks. Each apple variety peaks as the weeks go on, starting in late summer with the Gravensteins, and this week we bought Gala and Johnagolds. We didn't wait to get them home, but began munching while walking around and taking pictures. Nothing like an apple fresh off the tree on a crisp, cool, Autumn day!

We'll be back for pumpkins and more apples soon.
