Sumeet and I both had the day off on Thursday so we decided to make our annual trip to Eckerts Orchard. Last year's trip was a bit disappointing because
1. there were no apples to pick because of the poor crop so you had to "pick" your apples from barrels
2. We specifically went there to get their apple cider which Sumeet loves, but were distracted by their wine tasting and neglected to buy the cider.
Thursday was a beautiful day and it was a great trip for multiple reasons: there was hardly anyone else there, there were apples to pick off the trees this year AND we remembered the apple cider! All in all, it was a successful trip!
The trip home was a bit of adventure since we ended up driving through East St. Louis on the way home. Apparently the Garmin directs you to the most efficient, and not necessiarly the safest route. Lesson learned.
