Sprout Adventure part 2

Oldest grandson, the youngest doesn’t hold still long enough.
The lovely pear tree.
The very productive apple tree.


Today we ventured to Sweet Home, OR to visit the grandsons.  They have a great old apple tree & a pear tree in their backyard that we visited with.  They were getting ready to rest after working hard all year producing fruit, so we’ll check back with them in the spring.
