Wow, fall is already here, or is it winter!

Hi Everybody....
Well it is October 2nd! Can you believe it, I have had the best summer and as always, things should be slowin down...I have been traveling, of course, canning, yes, I said canning, and just trying to get as much out of life as I can.

With fall being here, I couldn't wait to get to the Apple Orchards....so a couple of weeks ago my sister Stephanie and I went to Julian and toured the apple orchards, had to stop at the local winery and sample their wines, then toured the little shops and had a great lunch. I had for the first time cinnamon ice cream, YUM!

Then last Sunday Andy and I went to Oak Glen to their apple orchards. Wonderful! I made a great picnic basket and off we went! Pumpkins, apples, corn and of course wonderful apple cider! What a wonderful afternoon!

Here are a few pictures of the scenery, and if you have a chance in the next few weeks I encourage you to enjoy this beauty all it will cost you is gas but a whole lot of memories!

I tried Picassa with the B/W really don't like the way it came out, I definately like Photoshop better!

Yum! Loved the wine tasting!

What a fun day!

I kept thinking to myself, Julian, Julian - why does that sound familiar to me, I know I haven't been there... then it hit me! Years ago, when it was just me and my dalmatian, there was a pet-friendly cabin in the woods not far from the town of Julian. I had bookmarked it because I thought I would stay there someday. :) That never happened, but boy was it a cute lil cabin!
