Every summer for the past 7 years close to our Anniversary, Lynn and I stay an extended weekend in the Placerville, California area located in the Sierra foothills. This year we stayed in the nearby Apple Hill. Apple Hill is renowned for its orchards, wineries, and farms. Although each farm has something different to offer, we enjoy the apple donuts and pies. Apple wines and beer are also available for tasting. This photo is on the farm we stayed this weekend. The farm grows Christmas Trees and has a wedding venue at this pond.
$10 tasting of 3 ciders and an apple beer! Visit Apple Hill. More on www.ajauntwithjoy.com

We had an amazing time. The house was beautiful. So grateful for all the (sleep) space making us able to have a group of friends join us for a concert in the area.
