Explosive. Furious. Colors of Fall on Hwy 2.Last weekend, on a quest for apples, my wife and I took a road trip to Leavenworth.
Tsugaru... Fuji... Jona Gold...Taka-Ichi... and Golden Delicious were some of the varieties that made it into our bag at the fruit stand. The shopping is always a big draw for the wives. Seems like I'd always file out of the boutique before my wife would...waiting for her to catch up with me. That is, until I found the cutlery shop. Then she was waiting for me while I looked at all the handmade pocket knives and collectibles.
We stopped by the Applets factory in Cashmere, which lead us to a delicious cider mill/cafe complete with wi-fi about a mile east of the sleepy downtown.
The big draw of the whole trip (besides a fun double-date with close friends) was the bright, multi-colored leaves lining Hwy 2 just outside of Leavenworth.
