SNOW SNOW SNOW!



I love snow. Seriously. I cannot get enough of it. Seriously.
It's October and it's snowing. We got 2.5 inches yesterday, and most of it has melted away, but more is on the way later this week. Of course it will melt away too, because it's going up into the 60's this weekend, but hey, I will take all the snow I can get!

Good Ol' Midwestern Fun

So I think I am assimilating just fine. I went apple picking and horse back riding with some new friends, and well, I think it's safe to say we're all much closer now. I'll get to that in a few.
We went out to Minnesota Harvest Apple Orchard. It's about 45 minutes south west of the city. It was kind of rainy and overcast and I was worried because I didn't bring a rain jacket. When we got out to the farm though it had cleared right up. So horseback riding was first on the agenda, and well I dont have many pictures because I was a little distracted. You see when I was mounting my horse...I ripped my pants. And we aren't talking a tiny tear. Nope, we're talking a big hole. So that was awesome. Especially since we still had apple picking left to do.

All in all the horse back riding was great, we went through a back part of the orchard, and it was really beautiful. Apple picking was fun too, I just tied my sweater around my waist and started picking.
