Greg and I took a ride up the "fruit loop" today on Mt. Hood. This is a winding route which carries you through orchards beautifully situated on the mountain. A stunning drive and a great chance to pick up
fresh apples and pears.

some of the loot fuji, tokyo rose, stark crimson pears, honey crisp, ginger crisp, sansa and a rediscovered heirloom, pristine, new on the mountain and only grown this first year by an organic grower |

headin' up the mountain the highway up being about 10 minutes from my house |

punk-ins, etc. |

construction on the highway uncovers some pretty big boulders from ancient glacial activity |

what a beautiful fall day though evergreens, being what they are, don't actually show it |
Looks like a beautiful day. Nothing quite like autumn in Oregon. Thanks for sharing!
