Carter Mountain Orchard

Several years ago, Justin went to this orchard with a friend and his family.  He loved it...talked about it all the time!  I've wanted to go ever since.  So, this morning, I got up and was able to drag him out of bed and we went.  Not too terribly far, about 65 miles, in Charlottesville.
 
 
Gorgeous day...comfy and breezy.  

 
Fuji apples.  Justin's favorite.

 
We searched and searched for trees with apples and finally found one...this is the first we picked.

 
It sure helped to have a tall person with me!

 
Justin enjoying a Rome apple.  The first bite was SOUR!

 
My red delicious.  Yum!

 
Yes, of course we got some apple cider donuts and apple pie to bring home.
