APPLE-PICKING FUN
It's a great time of year for the whole family to head out to a local orchard for some

apple-picking. The Ken Speirs Orchards on Mayfield Road was a hive of activity

recently as visitors flocked to pick their own apples and enjoy some fresh-baked

pies. Here, this little girl was simply amazed by her first visit to an orchard.
