There’s a chill to the air but the sun is still shining.  The view of Mt. Hood is crisp.  It’s our favorite time of year – fall.  Before the rain undoubtedly starts again, a group of girls headed to Hood River to pick apples and taste wine. We couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful autumn day.  The six of us piled in the car and made a day trip out of it, returning with a few bottles of wine and 20 lbs of apples.  I imagine the next get together might include apple pie?
