We have more than just beaches here!

We had a great time this weekend! We went up to the mountains here in Hawaii with some friends! The goal? To pick apples at the apple orchard! That's right we have apple orchards here. We also picked pears. So I thought I would share some of the pictures, they are not in order but they will just have to do!

Here is a Holly Berrie tree we found full of Holly!
this is just some of the area we were in.
Here are the apples and pears we picked, we will be doing alot of cutting and canning!

Here is wayne, my girls and some of our friends picking apples!
This is Coral enjoying the apples just as they were picked, she also though it o.k to pick up the apples off the floor and eat them, so we had to watch her closely!
Courtney and two of her friends picking apples!
My Beautiful oldest daughter with a handful of apples!!


On the way up we came across a couple rancher herding their cattle across the road! this was fun to watch!


The only thing that may have made it better would have been if the rancher would have been riding horses instead of ATVs! I guess that's the times we live in!
Here is another scenic picture that we got to enjoy!
Here is one of the old rancher houses we came across.
Horses roaming free and wild!
So needless to say we had a great time enjoying the things that God created for us to enjoy! We also saw wild turkey, wild pigs and had fun off roading in out 4 wheel drive mini van! It was a time with my family I will never forget and plan on doing again soon! peaches and plums are next! All here in Hawaii!
Aloha!
