Buying Apples!

On Saturday, October 4th, we got out of bed to a beautiful fall day in Oregon and decided to drive to Hood River to buy apples for eating and drying. We called Marcile Crandall who was happy to accompany us on short notice. We arrived in Hood River at about Noon and stopped for lunch at a Chinese restaurant before driving up to Parkdale to the Kiyukawa Orchards where we bought apple cider, pears, a nice pumpkin, and lot of apples -- Gala, Red & Golden Delicious, Honeycrisp and one or two other varieties.
From the orchards we had a great view of the north side of Mt. Hood, and a view of Mt. Adams (below) to the north.
