By Leo: Our wonderful trip to the orchard
On Friday we went to the apple orchard. We went first into the main building. As we approached the main building, we passed a large box of gourds. Filia quickly snatched one up and we found it impossible to remove it from her secure grasp. We then entered the main room. We quickly went to the section filled with apples. We soon found many appealing apples in large bags; we soon were finding it difficult to decide which to pick. Then we approached the peaches. We carefully selected three soft peaches. After selecting all our apples we quickly went outside to get a pumpkin. After we made our selection, we went inside to buy it. Soon after we went to see if we could spot anything at the orchard's hawk watch. When we were convinced we would find nothing, we went to play on their rope swing. As we made our our way to the car we saw a sign on another building that caught our eye. We went inside to find 2 tables of stuffed birds. I will include the pictures here. Though it would be good to get home, it was hard to leave such a wonderful apple orchard.
