Guest guest Posted October 12, 2003 Report Share Posted October 12, 2003 Sounds like such a great afternoon, Tess! > Dear RA Family...golly, I had a lovely afternoon. Em and I met my > eldest daughter Christena, grandkids Kelsey & Atom, and my son at > a nursery in Portland where they were having an " Apple Tasting > Festival. " It was a beautiful overcast Oregon autumn day. > > They had 35 varieties of apples and 12 varieties of pears all set up for > tasting. They were all decorated up with bales of hay, punkins, gords, > Indian corn. There was a band playing bluegrass & folk music, a > playhouse for kids with baloon animals, face-painting, punkin painting > and a maze. There was also big vats of cider. All of that was free. > Then you could purchase about 20 varieties of the apples at about 1/3 > the cost of supermarkets. The apple I liked the best was the " Elstar " - > I've never heard of that one nor seen it before so we got a few for > home. They had lots of products made from apples for sale, plus > streudel, apple dumplings, cider and juice to eat there, plus free > popcorn. > > Out of the hour and a half or so we were there, I was on my feet or > walking about 45 minutes - a huge accomplishment! I ended up with > cramps in my calves and feet, but it was so worth it. I needed my pain > med & muscle relaxer, but it just felt so good to be in the outdoors, > the clouds moving by, the wonderful aromas, smoochies & huggins from my > kiddles, and feeling really like a person - a member of society, not a > patient. > > I'm going to take a nap...it is blustery outside, and I'm pooped.
