Westview Orchard and Cider Mill

Today is kind of hectic or shall I say a busy day. I am supposed to go to my friends house for movie night out but hubby wanted to visit his Aunt and Uncle at Lapeer. We were at Lapeer for awhile and when we are about to leave I saw this advertisement in the newspaper about peaches in Romeo, Michigan. I asked hubby if he likes to go to Romeo he said yes and so off we go and with the help of our tomtom gps navigation we arrived at Romeo safe and sound. I like the town though, it is clean and neat  many  people were walking around town because it is the towns Peach festival, all the parking lots were full of cars but we didn't stop at the town rather we went to Westview Orchard and cider Mill a couple of miles going south from the town. When we get there I was amaze how huge is the farm I even didn't see the apple orchard nor the peach trees. After hubby park the car we went immediately to there bakery, where I find  people lining up to get there pies, cinnamon rolls, peach doughnuts, apple ciders, cherry garlic dip and other stuff. We only bought a gallon of apple cider and a half dozen of peach doughnuts. I am not a fond of doughnuts because it is sweet but when I tasted their doughnuts it was really good and with the apple cider it was double good. After we ate we walked across the driveway and went to this old building. The old building was a school building but they make it now as an ice cream house and next to the old school house is another old barn which they make it as a cider mill. I told hubby I wanted to go apple picking because they allow "U-pick" apples (some apple orchard don't allow it) but since it was a little bit late we leave the place but didn't go home immediately we went to Lordelyn's and Jeff's house because they invited us for a dinner. Though it was already late almost 5pm and all of my other Filipina friends went home already they still welcome us hehe. Stayed quite a bit at there house just talking about anything and everything till we said our goodbye,  I looked once again at their swimming pool, it looks  so inviting the water is clear but it was already kind of cold. I'd like to share some of the pictures that I took at the orchard. Next time I am going to an apple orchard I see to it that I will be picking apples to my hearts delight yung feel na feel ko na nasa America ako! ^_^

You are cute Kim. Natawa ako sa sinabi mong you want to pick apples to your heart's content para feel na feel mo na nasa America ka na. Pakikurot mo nga yung sarili mo para malaman mong di ka nananaginip. Tutuo na nasa America ka na. I love to read your post about your adventures with your hubby in different parts of America. At least napi feel din namin vicariously yung experiences mo dyan. Thanks for the enjoyable post. God bless you always.
