Pick your own food





This morning we traveled up North to the Gilcrease Orchards.  It was established back in the 1920's and has a really neat story that you can read here. So awesome to see a family preserving a little bit of our history. Each week they have different crops that are ready to be picked. Today we enjoyed picking some apricots. We walked up and down the rows of apricot, pear and peach trees trying to spot the juiciest and yummiest fruit. Meagan had a great time helping us spot the "oranges" as she called them.  Unfortunately we forgot our sunscreen (a big no-no in Vegas) so we weren't able to stay out long. For our next trip we will plan a little better and hopefully be able to pick more delicious fruit and vegetables.  Here are some pictures!
