Not an Apple on a Tree

We headed up to the mountains today to Sky Top Apple Orchard in hopes of a repeat of last year's fun outing. We grabbed a wagon and two buckets and made it about 50 yards into the orchard before we realized there was not an apple in sight. We neglected to read the sign at the top of the hill that said this year's severe drought has depleted the apple crop.

Josh still had a good time carrying around the empty buckets and trying to pet the farm animals. Molly enjoyed riding around in the backpack. We bought a few bags of prepicked apples from the end of the season, and hopefully next year will bring plenty of rain and lots of trees full of apples!
