Photo Series: Yates Orchard -- apple picking

We really out-did ourselves this weekend.  We went apple picking at a quaint little orchard in Illinois.  No trains.  No hay rides.  No $7 apples.  Just rows and rows of apple trees.  Couple that with a perfectly brisk fall day; it was pretty much perfect.

W's favorite part was picking up an apple, taking a bite, spitting it out, then launching it across the orchard. A huge field full of "balls"?  It was pretty much heaven to him.
