It's Apple Picking Time!

This weekend we took a ride over to Tuttle's Orchard to pick some apples. The kids had a great time picking and pulling the wagon. Also, they really enjoyed the play area - which is $2.00 for children 2 and over.

























The farm market had a nice selection of veggies and fruit for sale and we enjoyed some great produce from their - including some really fresh corn. They pick it fresh every day!











































We also enjoy visiting Anderson Orchard in the Pleasant View area. There is another location in Mooresville, IN. I noticed from their website that the Mooresville location is having an Apple Festival and Craft Fair this weekend - September 26 & 27.

Get Rid of Old Paint, Chemicals, Oil & More!

Do you have a shelf that looks like this in your garage? Here is a great event to help you clean it out!

Maybe this will be an incentive for me to clean up this shelf! I never want to do it because it is stuff that can't go in the regular trash. Here is a way to safely get rid of some of those dangerous chemicals. I heard about this drop off this morning on WIBC and thought you might like to know about it too.

Sunday Meditations

For the Beauty of the Earth

Folliot S. Pierpoint

For the beauty of the earth,
For the glory of the skies,
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.

For the beauty of each hour
Of the day and of the night,
Hill and vale, and tree and flower,
Sun and moon, and stars of light;
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.

For thyself, best Gift Divine,
To the world so freely given,
For that great, great love of thine,
Peace on earth, and joy in heaven:
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise.
