Anyway... on Saturday we went to an apple orchard and picked about 65 pounds of apples. We also made our own cider which was delicious!
We also stopped to take a picturesque walk along some train tracks. Because I grew up on an island I didn't have any tracks to play on as a kid and there aren't any in the area we live now either. We had a good time and no one fell into the river so it was officially a fabulous excursion.
The six hour drive home was completely uncomplicated. We made really good time and even managed to get to Seattle around 2:30 just as Mr. Logo was getting out of a meeting and so he joined us on our way home. He even drove for the last hour while I took a nap.The Aged Ps joined us for dinner, Mr. Logo made a pork loin roast with apples and rice and some yummy asparagus. I made an apple pie for dessert, mmmm.
It was a lovely trip and it is so nice to be home.
Now, what was I suppose to be doing?

Yay! You had fun. I want some of that cider.
You like your chocolat? i hated mine and gave it to my daughter.
Have a lovely day on this TUESDAY!
You know what's sad? These days I tell the day of the week by my blog posting schedule. Not posting on Monday totally threw me off.
Oh man, thanks now Hannah wants a razr or a chocolate or something expensive like that ack!
Glad you had fun...65 pounds of apples is only about 120 apples ..:P
Looks like a good vacation. I could go for some fresh apples. Yum!
What an awesome excursion! I'm making lots of appley things, too, since we went about 3 weekends ago. And lately I have a very hard time remebering what day it is. Or month. :-P
