October at our House

I looked out the back of our house this morning just as the sun was rising and this is what I saw...

Harvest Time

We live in an agricultural area and it is never more evident now at this time of year. We can walk down our road in either direction and be in an apple and pear orchard. The fruit has been harvested, so we often gather up a piece or two that was left behind. Fresh fruit right off the tree! It just doesn't get any better than that. As a friend told me..... no little sticker to remove, either.

Here is a look at the orchards down the road from us right before the harvest.
