Today, we took a little road trip out to very rural Virginia ... to the land of wineries, pumpkin patches and apple orchards. Specifically, we journeyed to the Marker-Miller Orchards in Winchester and spent the afternoon picking apples, sipping on fresh apple cider, and munching on wonderfully warm -- fresh-from-the-oven -- apple cider donuts. Sooooooo GOOD!!! We also each picked out a pumpkin ... this'll be the first time I've carved a pumpkin since ... um ... I was in kindergarten, I believe. Wow. Should be fun!
At any rate, we had the BEST time. It was wonderful, relaxing, refreshing and uplifting. Ah, fresh air. And the weather was perfect. Sunny, with a beautiful spattering of clouds ... cool, perfect fall weather ... little bit of a breeze. Pure bliss. I wish I could do this ever weekend.
