Today I went shopping with my daughter and grandson. The first place we went was a small privately owned apple orchard.
They didn't have a huge selection and it wasn't one of those fancy farm markets, but they had very nice apples. There were just a few varieties. Last year the apple crop was so poor that it was nice to see that this was going to be a good year for the apple growers. He had Wolf River apples there that aren't easy to find. My mom used to get them for baking so I bought a peck of them. Another kind they had were the Honey Crisp variety. They are a wonderful eating apple. They are crisp and sweet. I also bought a pound of fresh cranberries. My daughter got some onions and a bag of Cortland apples which are her favorite.

Next we went to lunch and then to a few stores that I don't normally get to. I am a regular patron of the lumber yards and the Fleet Farm store. Today we went to TJ Maxx, JoAnn fabrics, Target and the Outlet Mall. It was a nice day.
