Grafton ferry

It's that time of year again! This morning we set out and boarded the first ferry to Illinois to go apple picking. I prefer a lower temperature (low 90s was a little warm for me while toting a 20+lb toddler a camera and several bags of apples.), but one of our favorite apples was in season (honey crisp). So it was a hot one, but we came out with a big pile of apples and a considerably smaller pile of peaches. The kids enjoyed running around and looking for the perfect apple.

Gemma was enthralled by the boat ride and spent most of the trip with her little finger pointed out the window as if to say "hey guys? Should there be water all around the car?" I was totally taken by surprise by her fear of the orchard transport tractor, she spent the whole ride firmly about my neck.
