Mommy and I picked up Daddy from the airport this afternoon and then we headed to the apple orchard in Afton. We enjoyed the crisp fall day and picked a peck of apples. Mommy said she'd hoped we would get to pick Honey Crisp, but they weren't available today, so we settled for Honey Gold. Mommy hasn't decided what we'll do with them all yet, but we'll know in a couple of days, for sure. By the way, I don't think a 'peck' is as big as it used to be. Or at least it's not as big as I've been led to believe, listening to all those rhymes - I mean, why bother adding the peck to the bushel?
