Gilcrease Orchard ...

We have always drove by the Gilcrease Orchard and each time we say we are going to go there, but never do. Finally this year we came through. We wanted to go early so there was plently of pumpkins to chose from. My parens and Auntie Barb joined us for Mary's first pumpkin picking. She wasn't too sure of the dirt or plants. All she wanted to do was chew on the tiny green pumpkins.

We drove around to the other side and picked some squash and zuchinini. My dad even found a handful of green beans. We were dissapointed when the lady told us there was no more apples. My mom and I were going to make some homemade applesauce. But there's always next time.

I think we are going to try and go there more often for the fresh fruit and veggies. We live so close, and off the vine is so much better.
