ROAD TRIP: Oak Glen


Dig em up and puttum out there.

NaBloPoMo. . . A great way to get rid of all those unfinished and unpublished posts. .






How could I forget our visit to the apple orchards?

Every September as a way to celebrate FALL and my mothers birthday we head off to a local apple place. We have 2 within driving range, Oak Glen and Julian. Oak Glen is closer to us and I like it a whole lot better. This quaint city is in a loop of sorts around the hills and orchards. It is more spread out than Julian. In Julian you can park somewhere, anywhere and just about walk to everything. But at Oak Glen you need to drive to each little business area and orchard.

I was concerned when fires ravished the area last month but I hear that the town was not badly affected. It would not have stopped us unless they just closed the roads entirely. We would have just driven around and gawked at all the devastation.

What? You know you would too!

Da, BH and mum.
We're waiting to eat at our favorite Oak Glen resteraunt.
Thankfully we didn't wait too long.
(and why does mom look like she has a black eye?)

I have a favorite place in Oak Glen where I like to eat. Sometimes we have lunch and take our desert home.

But sometimes we eat them there.

This year we took the folks and some great friends.

Girlfriend? I see you trying to take credit for all those pies!

That looks like a wonderful day! And that dessert looks too good.
