We went to the Oregon coast to refuel our mind, body & spirit. And it worked. Hope was restored. But this was in August and 2020 was not done with us yet.
As soon as October arrives, I start craving apples and pumpkins and crisp Fall weather. In Southwest Louisiana we have the pumpkins and if we’re lucky we’ll get a few mornings below 60 degrees. We can of course buy a large variety of apples from the supermarket, but there’s nothing better than apples freshly picked from an orchard. I grew up with a large garden where we had apple, pear and persimmon trees. I had forgotten those tastes until Eric and I made a trip in 2011 to Washington state during the harvest season.
