downpour at the apple orchard


Thanks to my seafaring blood and having been brought up with hanseatic hardiness, going apple picking in the pouring rain was just fine. It was so wonderful to have a serene and lonely orchard, an unstressed orchard manager, a friend and her puddle jumping toddler as company and a bag of Roxbury Russets and Rhode Island Greenings as a result. For what its worth, if you can get your hand on some Swiss Ovolmaltine chocolate, it is divine when paired with the RI Greening.
