An Apple a Day...

A friend and I went to an apple orchard today. She knows the owner and makes a yearly pilgrimage to see him and get her apple fix. It was a great ride to Valatie.The weather was beautiful, we had a great time together and I came home with some apple orchard treasures.

We were treated to a look "behind the scenes" and even though it wasn't exactly a guided tour, it was interesting to see how the apples were packaged.

Of course, you can't photograph an orchard or apple stand without getting shots of the pumpkins.

How much water does a camel's hump hold?

None! The hump stores fat that the camel uses for energy when food is scarce.

And on that note, good night!
