Brown County: Apple Works Orchard

In my research of Brown County,I found this super-de-duper apple orchard about a half hour away. It was called the Apple Works Orchard. We decided to go there the first day, since it had the best weather outlook.

Part of the grounds had a small lake. The leaves were floating down and riding across the water...beautiful!

I do not have the same sentiments about the leaves that floated down into my yard while I was gone.

Oh didn't I tell you about my part time job? :)

Julie's pretty cool! It has that right!

Allow me to explain. I hate the very concept of port-a-potties. In lo these many years of my life, I have refused to use them. After the Greensburg tornado, this was the only option during the cleanup efforts. Well this or the "praise the Lord for a big bladder" method. I just praised the Lord right through my time in port-a-potty-ville. But this day I decided to be a big girl and use the stupid thing.

NEVER AGAIN.

My reward for surviving the port-a-potty: more beautiful scenery.

This was the main hub of the orchard. They had apples (of course), pumpkins, all sorts of baked apple stuff, caramel apples, cider, ice cream, you name it.

There was also a nature trail that surrounded the orchard, so we walked it. Or rather, Julie skipped it. :)

As for me...well, I was just a goofball. :)

Good, good times at the Apple Works!
