Leaf peepers are touring New England, apple harvests are abounding, and pumpkins are decorating many homes. My family and I recently visited Applecrest Orchard in Hampton Falls, NH for an afternoon of apple picking. One of the most popular features of the orchard is the tractor drawn hayrides that take you through acres of fields and orchards to the optimum apple picking spot of the day. My 14 month old son was thrilled. I loved viewing the lucsious apples hanging from the trees. Once we were walking in the apple orchard, it was quite easy to lose sight of our extended family as the children ran from tree to tree. The apples were delicious and we also enjoyed hot cider donuts during the hayride. I did manage to save a few donuts for my morning coffee. The apple pie I baked the next day was delicious! I'm ready for another.
