Apple Hill and the accident

So apple hill is a tradition that Ryan has done with his family for years. It is a fun little town that has beautiful scenery, pumpkin patches, and apples everywhere. As you drive through the smile winding roads you find ma and pa type shops everywhere with anything from crafts to homemade goodies.

We met Ryans mom and his aunt Mary there and drove around trying to figure out where we wanted to stop first. They had packed a picnic for us and we were all really excited to be there. As we drove through the town and started to ascend to "apple hill" the traffic was horrible! We were driving so slow, and sometimes we were almost at a stop. Because the roads are so small it can be a little difficult when there is a lot of traffic. 

So as you probably have read before...maya HATES the car. Which does make traveling a  lot more difficult but it hasn't stopped us yet. She was in the back and had been screaming for quite some time already, our nerves were wearing thin. She had just woken up from a rather long nap and had been in the car for  an hour after that so she was hungry. We pulled over to the side of the road to meet up with his mom to find out where we were going to stop so we could feed maya. The cries kept getting louder and louder so we decided to just turn around and go back about 1/2 a mile. 

In frustration ryan backed up to get on the road but forgot to look behind him. I looked over my shoulder just in time to see him back into a nice big pick-up truck.  Luckily the guy was pretty cool about it....and even better was that we had just gotten insurance on our new car exactly one week before that. Hallelujah insurance! So yes we already have a ding on the back our car we have only owned a month. A little frustrating, but no one was hurt and that is what matters.

After getting things figured out we found a place to have our picnic and it was fun to just relax and see all the beauty around us. Ryan and his Aunt Mary stood in line for almost an hour to get a fresh baked apple pie-which was the most amazing pie I have ever had in my life! I want to go back there again just for that.  Carol bought us a few crafts for our home. One for halloween and one for Maya. Me and Ryan would someday like to go back there again just the two of us for a romantic get-away, it is so beautiful and quaint. We'll see when that happens! :)
