Lightning....and the thunder...

Well, we actually made it out to the Apple Festival! The plan was to go to the festival then go apple picking at Stepps, a pick your own place we have frequented for years.  When we got to the festival there were some dark clouds, but it was sunny and humid.  The clouds decided that they, too, would like to visit the festival and brought their friends lightening and thunder with them! We didn't get to stay as long as we probably would have liked, and went to go find food elsewhere.  Mark's food challenge makes it a bit more interesting than just dealing with my allergies, but we ended up getting a rotisserie chicken and baguette from Ingles grocery store that worked for both of our food needs. The kids are tacos from White Duck.  By the time we are the storm had passed, so we went to Stepps. We picked some early Fuji's, crimson crisps, galas, and a few other types.  It started raining before we left, and as we were coming back to Charlotte there were more thunderstorms! We unloaded our apples, popcorn, cider donuts, and cider then made dinner and did some requirements.  I will most likely do apple.feitters tomorrow for breakfast so if anyone wants to join us let me know.
