Apples, Friends, Cats, Deer

Last weekend we visited Grace and Tom in Rock Cave, WV.  Deer are overindulging in their apple orchard, so they graciously invited Erik to hunt for the weekend under their agricultural deer cull permit.  We had a lovely visit and came home with meat.  We also came home with the world's best apple sauce and lots of cool new plants to put in our garden (including some beautiful carnivorous plants from their son Josh's nursery). Ava was very interested in the process but was even more interested in Grace, Tom, gardening, picking and eating apples, and playing with the awesome, patient, affectionate cats.  

Beautiful orchard with browse line.
